They are talking specifically about a PC not Apple Mac format by the way:

It
depends very strongly on the resolution of your pics, Ctreyes. A pic
that is a jpeg with some 5000 pixels on the long side are on the order
of 3 megabytes so 10gb/3mb = 3333 pics. Other less compressed formats
can be much larger. Lower resolution jpegs with 2000 pixels on the long
side will be on the order of 700 kilobytes so 10gb/700kb = 14, 200
pics.

What
Robert said... at the default upload size, you get ABOUT 4,000 photos
per gigabyte. That is, the photos are about 250KB each as uploaded (as
opposed to about 3MB out of the camera). So 10GB would let you store
about 40,000 photos at the default 1600x1200 or so upload size.
If I try to upload the original size photos, each photo is 3MB or so. That gives me about 330 photos per gigabyte. So, 10GB would let you store about 3,300 full resolution photos (more or less).
If you uploaded them at 600x800 pixels, you'd get about 4 times more photos, so you'd get maybe 160,000 photos in 10GB... but why would you do that? :-)

The following is for an apple format but assuming compression algorithm:

Q: How much space required for 12,000 jpg images?
Is
there any experience about how much space is required for 12,000 jpg
images, where the average image size is 6 MB - assuming that there is a
compression algorithm used on the iPad.

I've
currently got about 1250 photos synced to the Photos app from my Mac.
The jpeg versions on my Mac take about 2.1 gig, the versions on the iPad
1.2 gig.
Whether
you would get a similar ratio is difficult to say. The jpeg versions on
my Mac are a mixture of sizes, both in terms of dimensions (older ones
being 1800 * 1200, newer being 3000 * 2000) and file sizes (250k to 6
meg).
It
will also depend upon which iPad you have or are thinking of getting.
The iPad 2 has a lower resolution screen, so it the synced photos will
be smaller.
From http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314 :
- The iPod Photo Cache folder can be larger than the actual size of photos being synced.
- The size of the iPod Photo Cache may vary depending on the device being synced with. The higher resolution a device is, the larger the iPod Photo Cache will be.
- If you are syncing with multiple devices, your iPod Cache may contain multiple optimizations of the same images.
