Does the iPhone do Geo-Tagging? If so, how do I switch it on?
TIA

Not sure about that carkitter - maybe someone else can help on that one
I only found this last night, but there is an update to biteSMS which offers landscape keyboard support, the ability to send contacts to recipients and also share your location with someone else. Also you can send/receive url's via sms which you'll be able to open up in safari. The beta version is available to test, just add this source in Cydia

Is that like when you go to take a picture and it pops up and asks 'Would you like to use your current location' ?

Yup. But you have to leave Location Services On. Then everytime you go into the Camera App it'll geo tag.
But leaving Location Services on will hit your battery life a bit!

whilst I'm here...
erm, is anyone having any problems receiving emails in Fetch mode when the phone is Sleeping?
I've got emails set to Fetch Every Hour - but when the phone is in Sleep mode the emails don't come through. But as soon as I wake the phone voila!

Thanks Ryan.
Hmmmmm!!! Strange - again!!!
I done some Googling and it seems some people do have a problem with Fetch mode.
Will try sending myself some more emails to test this out.........

yeah well i've learned that it is a common problem, and Apple have even acknowledged that there is a problem with this. Strange that it doesnt seem to happen with everyone. As always, you'll have to hope it's fixed in the next fw update! (which shouldn't be long actually)

And now that I've put this post up, guess what just happened a few minutes ago? I received 2 emails - whilst the phone was in sleep mode!!!
iPhone, you sure are a strange and temperamental beast!!!!
Role on 2.2

Though no doubt this will come with its own quirks though!!!
