Yes, my iPhone's name is Norrin Radd, the real name of The Silver Surfer.

As far as I can tell, this is only available in Preview.

I'm sure the info would also be visible in Photoshop too.

This video's making me seasick. Keep your mouse in one place! :)

That's exactly what any other GPS-enabled camera would do. It just adds the information to the photo. What you do with it is up to you. Upload to Flickr, for example, and they'll be able to put it on a map, etc.

The only problem, as it stands today, is that uploading to Flickr is mostly done through email, which strips the EXIF information from the photo. When better uploaders come along, it will work nicely, agreed.

You mean mobile uploading to Flickr using email? What about if you use Flickr's desktop uploader? Does it retain the geolocation info? (Not that that's a real solution for iPhone users.)

I think if you answer "Okay", it only asks the first time you open the app. So if you yes yes the first time, it wont ask again. That seems to be the behavior of my iPhone.

I assume it's for like when you upload the photo to Flickr for example that might use that to point your location (geotag)

Is the iPhone named Norrin Radd? Awesome choice! Silver Surfer reference, right?

Do you have the 3G iPhone with the AGPS module or are you just running 2.0 software on the older model of iPhone?
