In the 1/million chance the wifi on your camera breaks?]]>Jun 22nd 2010 11:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
I know that CF is a far older design than SD, but there's more space in there, and there are a lot of DSLR users (especially in the pro market) who'd love a bit of WiFi action.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://forums.eye.fi/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=391]]>Jun 22nd 2010 8:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/Jun 22nd 2010 8:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
I don't get it. In order to use this tech, you'll have to be near computer most of the time anyway.

I'm sure the antenna in the microSD card will be super powerful too! YES!]]>Jun 22nd 2010 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
People can follow your adventures, keep family up to date and so on. Not to mention if you are doing this and a card fails your pictures are not lost.

I have my laptop set to upload pic if on and my Android phone rooted for wifi tether so I have ability to upload from my eyfi at anytime.

So yes there is a need, just like there is a need to surf the web from our phones. ]]>Jun 22nd 2010 11:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
What we really need is a android app that picks up the images from the camera and uploads them minus the laptop.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
So if I am taking pics out an about I flip on wifi-tether on my phone and my card then uses it to upload to my home server and flickr.

I only use my laptop if I want to view some shots on a larger screen as I take them.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
WiFi to local hard drives would be great, though.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 4:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/toshiba-looking-to-standardize-wireless-memory-cards-crash-eye/
If it is the fact you have not had a chance to look at them and edit or delete the ones you do not like, all my photos are uploaded and are set as my eyes only by default.

But yes you can setup a adhoc connection on your laptop (Or whatever) and load them locally as well. (Laptop gets stolen and your a goner)]]>Jun 24th 2010 12:14PM
