[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Edward W.” for the heads up.]
About time! I had to order large books from MyPublisher.
What is the IPNSTouchSupport.h file doing inside iPhoto app?
@Tom
Must likely to support the Macbook Pro’s Multi Touch trackpad.
@ Tom –
iphoto supports pinching and panning and such using the multitouch trackpads
Will it run on my Psystar?
When can we expect Geo-tagging in iPhoto? Would make places much more usefull for professional cameras and GPS tracker combinations.
Jafo, that’s in iPhoto already. It will import GPS information (see the Places thingy). My iPhone camera, and my regular digital camera both provide GPS info that Places in iPhoto uses.

161 megs for a maintenance update?
@Ron, Thank you Ron, but what you describe is that you import photo’s that are already geo-tagged.
What I would like iPhoto to support is the option to import photo’s, not geo-tagged, and than import a track of GPS device. From their iPhoto should match the photo’s with the track (based on dat/time?) and add the geo-tags to the photo’s.
That would be a great asset to multiple users who do have a camera without GPS receiver and a separate GPS receiver.
@Jafo If your camera doesn’t have geo tagging as a feature, you most likely can use this SD card that will add the geo tagging (most of the time: it uses wifi signals to map your location; the wifi doesn’t need to be unsecured because it just uses its location, not its access) to your photos. It is available exclusively through Apple Online and Apple Retail Stores.

Jafo, my SLR camera has a separate GPS connector (JOBO’s), and that data gets imported in iPhoto.

@Heather, Thank you for the hint. Too bad my camera is a Sony, working with a MemoryStick. Therefore, and SD card format is not an option.
@Ron, You are just pointing out what I am trying to say. At this moment the photo must have the geotag data already captured in the EXIF before you import the photo in iPhoto.
What I would appreciate is something like GPSPhotoLinker (http://www.earlyinnovations.com/gpsphotolinker/) built in in iPhoto.
