A built-in camcorder GPS that stamps the Lat/Long of the shooting
location on the video?
Still cameras have already started introducing this. I think it's
rather cute, but I wouldn't pay much more for it and I wouldn't want
it to result in a big bulge on the side of the camera.
My Nikon D200 connects via a cord to my GPS unit. At first I thought this
was something of a gimmick. However, as one of my major occupations is
photography / videography of Wild Animals / Wild Places in various
out-of-the-way parts of the World (along with the exploits of my
accompanying Adventurers), it has proven to be really useful.
Just been looking at some exif data of a series of pics of Iberian Wall
Lizards - these are currently undergoing reclassification and the gps data
is proving invaluable in finding the range limits of the various subspecies
without having to pour through reams of notes!

Still, I wouldn't be surprised if most cameras have them in within 3
or so years.
