There are lot of options. Just a couple of hours ago I read about a  
GPS receiver/recorder where you can plug in a storage card and it  
annotates all the contained photos with the GPS coordinates matching  
the timestamp.

Nevertheless I don't see the reason for buying special hardware - the  
same timestamp matching is performed by a number of free software  
around, you just need a GPS recorded that produces data with a well- 
known format.
