This seems to be related to a bug I found on android issue database;
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19268

The above bug is that when taking pictures with intent
ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE, it saves the image in the location specified in
Extras bundle but it also saves the image in the gallery.. It seems
that as a side effect of this bug, the image that's saved in the user
specifed location is missing the orientation information while the one
in the gallery is saved properly.

This makes for a messy user experience since they can only take
pictures in the sideways orientation or they need to take the picture
then select it from the gallery on these devices..

I opened another issue regarding this here;

Also I have started a stackOverflow ticket that got no response
(despite the fact that I put up some delicious bounty on it). The
question has detailed info;
