Does anyone have any sample code or even know if it is possible to use geotagged images with the silverlight api.  I had the idea to have a user drag an image onto the map and then build a picturemarkersymbol where the mouseup event occured.  Is there a better way to do this and also store the geotagged images on the client so they can retrieve them later?

I'm afraid you would have to write your own image header parser to do this in Silverlight. I don't think it has the API's necessary to do this (.NET 2.0+ does though). But if you could get over the hump of reading the header, it should be pretty easy from there.
This API could perhaps be a good start: http://imagetools.codeplex.com/
