I've installed the R3AA camera cab on my X1. Geotagging works very well. Can open the photos on my Mac with OS X Preview. The coordinates are displayed in the Inspector panel, clicking the locate button shows the position in Google Maps - just brilliant.

it's working for me also... but remember, launch the camera and take some photos.

if you launch, take a photo and exit, no gps data will be embedded as you have to wait to the x1 to get a fix on the sats before it records that info.

example:

I shooted 4 photos and only the last 3 had the gps data.

of course, if you launch the camera and wait to get the fix, all photos will have it.

Hi,
When taking pictures you must wait until you will see 3 little "brackets" with satellite icon (left upper corner). It means you have GPS fix. Now while taking pictures you will have long/lat data in EXIF.
Send it to flikr or picasa and will see exact position of them.
These I taken with my X1: Geotagged X1 photos on Picasa

You don't need to place the picture's on the map itself, right? LOL
Anyway :) thx for the tip ;-)

Yes, it is no need to place it on the map. Just upload the photos and they are placed automatically.
You need to remember when changing resolution (irfanview for example) always keep exif data while saving the photo.
