yeah, i remember having a similar idea to this some time ago for video purposes.
all you really need is a data logger which will record your NMEA sentences, then it should be a fairly straightforward task to correlate a position and altitude based on the time of the photograph.
depending whether you're on the move, you could also get a fairly good heading.
all the photos in my database have a field whereby you can enter this data (as we don't log GPS data like this yet), and i figger that when most of the photos have a position and heading entered, i should have a fairly good basis for viewing stuff that was never specifically photographed. eg, point to a position on a map (or select a location), and a couple queries could find out whether there was ever a photograph taken near that position looking toward it. cool huh?

Another option is to use just about any digital camera and any gps unit, then use
Photo Studio, a free program to link the two together. http://www.stuffware.co.uk/photostudio/
Photo Studio relates the time stored with the image to the time gathered from a GPS track. (Make certain that you set the clock on the camera to the time on the GPS unit.) Photo Studio then updates the metadata associated with your photo to include the lat/lon data.
Use G7ToWin, also a free program from: http://www.gpsinformation.org/ronh/ to download the track from your GPS.
As mentioned earlier, GPS PhotoLink, a $229 program, shows track or waypts in Arcview and then shows photo thumbnails on cursor hover and a link to html.
