p.2 #1 · GPS in dSLR - useful?

Moose Peterson love the Nikon GP-1 (I know, he loves everything Nikon), but, blogged about a design flaw with the unit. Apparently, the cable has some issues. Here is the post: http://www.moosenewsblog.com/2009/07/not-the-best-design-nikon/

Interesting....

I have the GP1, but haven't had the cable issue...(yet?)
I am not a big fan of the cable though, with the unit on the hot shoe, the cable is longer/larger than it needs to be and so it does make a large arc around the upper left side of the camera. I am hoping someone creates a shorter, more flexible one. Something that would hug the body closer.

I guess the supplied one would work well when attached to the camera strap, but I have only done hotshoe mount so far.
