Eye-Fi Card, Wireless (WIFI) 2GB SD Memory Card




For those of you, like myself, that love their point and shoots (shout out to my beautiful Canon G9), you will love this product. For about $100, you replace your regular 2Gig SD card with the Eye-Fi 2 gig card. Now all you need is wifi access and your photos will automatically transmit to a popular web destination of your choosing with its built-in network! The Eye-Fi supports the following sharing/social networking/printing websites: KODAK Gallery, Shutterfly, Wal-Mart, Snapfish, Photobucket, Facebook, Webshots, Picasa Web Albums, SmugMug, Flickr, Fotki, TypePad, VOX, dotPhoto, Phanfare, Sharpcast and Gallery. The card handles the full-resolution jpg photos that you have taken and re-sizes them if the website you are transmitting to has a size limit.
