You don't need this specific device if you have some type of GPS that lets you save track logs. There is/was a project at Microsoft Research called the World Wide Media Exchange -- they created a utility that does the same thing with the track log from any GPS. It's not fancy and doesn't have a lot of features, but it's free and it works for geotagging your photos. The original site is http://wwmx.org, but the download links seem to be disabled at the moment. An alternate download site at http://research.microsoft.com/research/downloads/Details/eadb6a33-b1b8-4c4d-b713-64fae728f74f/Details.aspx seems to be still working. You can also do a Google search for "location stamper" and you'll find several articles about the utility.
