Hi Guys (been a while since I've posted!),

got an interesting bug of sorts with the geotagging on the iPhone and using Picasa:

All the photos I am taking end up in the North Pacific 27 N, 153 W. when I view them in Picasa and Google earth - I've checked the properties on the file and Picasa seems to be importing them this way...

Now, I just checked and My location is actually roughly 27 S, 153 E (yes, a little north of Brisvegas for the Aussies - Southern Hemisphere!)

Have any other guys had problems and is there any way that I can verify my GPS coordinates ON the iPhone (I can't check any photo properties here by the look of it)

The problem is either:
a) Apple, being US-Centric has forgotten that there's this whole other place called the rest of the world (chances are likely, we know the track record...)
b) Picasa is importing incorrectly (equally likely given that the iPhone 3G hasn't been around for too long)

Does anyone know how I should check to determine this?

Thanks Muchly!

-- Dan =)
