Who knows about Windows 8 tablets and/or geotagging photos
I'd like to change up my work computer by switching to a Windows 8 tablet. Yes, it needs to be Windows so it can work for me in and out of the office. I don't run programs that need a lot of processing power, so I think a good tablet will suffice.
One feature I'd really like is to be able to take photos in the field, geotag them, and be able to display them on a map.
I've read through the specs on so many tablets and can't figure out if this is possible. In fact, there's only a few that even come with a true integrated GPS.
Right now I think the top contender is the Lenovo Tablet 2. I suppose it would be possible to buy a usb GPS "dongle" if I choose a tablet without integrated GPS...but I'm still not clear if Windows or another free program will allow me to geotag all photos taken and overlay them on something like Google Earth easily.
