Only one moe step to go:

automatic geotagging is a long overdue feature for the digital camera. Now we have the 'when' (timestamping) and the 'where' (geotagging) automatically tagged onto the digital pics. Now, if we can just get some facial recognition software that will auto-tag my photos with names of the people in them, then we wont have to manually tag any of our photos anymore.

I think Ricoh has had the "do-it-all gadget" idea for some time. Starting with the i700g 6 years ago, then the ProG3 a few years ago and now the 500SE GPS-ready camera. (it even has a compass) But based off the price these are not for your average user.

I was actually wondering if any camera have wi-fi built in. That way when you take a snapshot of the kids at the zoo you can find a hot spot and e-mail the photograph directly to Grandma!
