If you print your own images using an inkjet printer then its best to use Adobe RGB 1998. As has been said it has a wider gamut of colours and inkjet printers particularly the 7 colour ones can take advantage of this. However in my experience most high street labs use the sRGB colour space so its best to use that if you use them. Again as has been said if you want to display work on the web then use sRGB as the browser cannot support ARGB
Now as I understand it, if you use this colour space in camera it is no problem to change to Adobe RGB in software like Photoshop. To say you cannot put in a colour space that was not applied in camera is not correct. If you use jpegs in camera which are 8 bit then its simple to convert to 16bit, its the same with 12bit Raw files. Much the same principle.
Onscreen, ie in your photo manipulation prog you can clearly see the greater depth of colour in ARGB, however if this is saved without converting to sRGB and then posted on the web the colours will look flat.
