Eye-Fi?

[Brian Emfinger]

We just ran a story on this and is the first I heard about it but it looks like it could be useful.

Anyone using this yet?

These look pretty cool. Brian, did you all get to use one? I would be curious to find out how bad it drains batteries?

If that has any range at all on it it will be perfect. I guess this is the temporary answer for when the 26mp DSLR's become commonplace.

The home site says it has a range of 90ft outdoors and 45ft indoors.
From what I've read at various spots, it is unusably slow reading/writing and only supports JPEG at this time, not RAW. Sounds like a CF model that supports RAW in in the making.
The new Canon 5d has an optional wireless grip but it's a large chunk of change. Hopefully all will start building it into their designs, I think it's a great idea.
