Has anybody noticed this before? I only noticed it after the Mac OS X 10.5 update.

If you're running a Mac then use the Preview application to open a photo taken with your iPhone (2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.1). Location Services should have been on when the photo was originally taken. 1st Gen or 2nd Gen iPhone. Mine is a 2007 1st Gen iPhone.

Once the photo is open in Preview on your Mac go to Tools > Inspector and all the EXIF data about the photo will be displayed.

But there is a new section called GPS. A mini map of the globe shows where you were when that photo was taken. A link also appears which when clicked on opens Google Maps in your Mac web browser pin-pointing exactly where you were when the photo was taken.

Nice!
