Eye-Fi: Wireless for Digital Cameras |

Ok, this is very cool. It shouldn't be news to anyone that there are now digital cameras on the market that offer WiFi built-in. Previously, I thought this was the way to go, but I've had a change of heart, and am now completely stoked for the official launch of Eye-fi. So what is Eye-fi? Glad you asked. It's a media card that combines storage with built-in WiFi connectivity! So take your pictures, and when you're within range of a (pre setup) computer, your pictures will start downloading to your system. No hassle with extra cables, card readers, etc. So why not just buy a camera with built-in technology for this? Well, maybe I love my camera as it is, or don't have enough dough to get a new gadget like this. Or maybe I want this little piece of tech from Eye-fi because it works in any device that takes a media card. There - now the wheels are turning, aren't they? There are TONS of possibilities with this thing.
It's still in final development, so it's not on the market yet, but it's really only a matter of time. I'll be waiting for this baby. I'd love to have this functionality, wouldn't you?

Imagine filling the card with pics, move to within ad-hoc wireless range, download and repeat.
No cables or swapping cards around, saving you the expense of replacing that new SLR you just bought with a new wifi one.
You could also instantly upload all your kids pics when within range of some open cafe, moving them to flicker then to your mum's wireless picture frame. Just watch what you take photo's of though :)
