Nokia’s official S60 Multimedia Blog reveals that a geotagging upgrade for the N82 will be released this quarter, as part of the next firmware release.  Geotagging, which stores the location an image was taken at in the picture file’s metadata, takes advantage of the N82’s camera and GPS receiver; images can then be uploaded to compatible online galleries (such as Flickr) and displayed on maps.

Nokia’s recently announced Nokia Maps 2.0 update includes geotagging out-of-the-box, and will be pre-installed on the quartet of handsets the company revealed at the Mobile World Congress.  Apparently the N82 firmware will include other functionality tweaks, though the S60 blog did not reveal the details.
