Mid-cycle, you walk over 20 yards and spend a few minutes making 10 shots; it's plausible that if the GPS refreshes during that window, some of those shots will show the previous location and some the new one.

Overall though I'm not too worried about accuracy in inches; if I am driving from place to place or on a road trip, or walking/hiking, I want the GPS to refresh often enough to get the different spots I shoot from. It's worked well for me with that goal in mind.

I think I have mine set to every minute.

Every time I look over my photos from Iceland, I wish I had geotagging back then!
For some place I've never been before and may never be again, I can see geotagging. I probably should have done more of it in the UK on our last trip. But for guys like DC and Ed who have familiar stomping grounds, geotagging is not as important, I would think. Like anything else, it's a tool you use when you need it and store away when you don't.
