I Spy…The Eye-Fi Wireless Memory Card

We wrote about these before here and now they have released a new line of products that look to be a step in the right direction.

Basically they are a replacement for your memory card in your digital camera that allows you to then connect to pretty much any wireless network and actually send the photos to a supported site such as Flickr. You can also send files to your computer without using your cables. The card also has the option of geo-tagging (tagging your photos with GPS information) automatically using a 3rd party service called Skyhook.

It all looks very interesting and the next time I buy a memory card it am sure it will be one of these. What a great idea.

Eye-Fi Explore ($129): Includes one year’s worth of automatic hotspot uploads via Wayport. Also includes Wi-Fi geotagging via Skyhook.

Eye-Fi Share ($99): Same as the current version of the Wi-Fi card; uploads via preprogrammed networks and integrates with Flickr and other services.

Eye-Fi Home ($79): Basic version, includes preprogrammed network uploads but no online integration.
