Just saw this today about a new camera that GE will be selling soon.

What looks interesting from an OSM point of view is that it includes a GPS unit that records where images where taken. It also sounds like it should have a reasonable zoom range and shouldn't be too expensive. No idea what the image quality or shutter lag will be like though. Shutter lag is bad for trying to catch road signs from moving cars! ;-)
For me, a camera that automatically geotags images would be great for mapping areas where roads have been drawn from aerial imagery, but not tagged with names and references. It would save having to carry round a GPS and a camera, and also removes the need for synching times.
Just thought i'd flad it up as others might be interested too.
