I am actually on the prowl today for a USB video camera that I can plug into the computer in my car to take images as I drive, geotag them (along with orientation) and upload them as I go. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Here's what I've found so far (with some help from Adam Schreiber): - http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=webcam&cid=5197139896207141132&sa=title#ps-sellers - Also, my XBox 360 webcam (when plugged in to my Ubuntu box) can scale up to 1280x...@5fps, which is almost perfect. I'm trying to refrain from using a digital still camera for two reasons: 1. Lots of snapshots will wear out the focus/shutter mechanism 2. Controlling the camera in a reliable way is hard.
