The famous Eye-Fi card, which beams your photos wirelessly from your camera to your computer or what have you, is getting an upgrade. Starting October 5 (If I’m reading this correctly), Eye-Fi cards will now upload at twice the speeds they used to. Am I missing something here? Quote:

Eye-Fi Inc., makers of the world’s first wireless memory card for digital cameras, today announced enhancements to its family of Eye-Fi cards that will make the upload of digital photos from camera to computer twice as fast. The faster wireless speeds will also be made available to existing Eye-Fi users at no extra cost.

Depending on the card you already have, you can also get upgrades like geotagging and direct-to-web uploading for various services like Adoramapix (?) and MobileMe (gah!). You can also purchase year-long access to a type of wireless hotspot I have never heard of before, despite there being 10,000 of them. All in all, fine additions to a fine product. Lovely.

  • The famous Eye-Fi card is getting an upgrade. Going twice as fast! I find that hard to believe! Maybe 50% as fast. You know you can’t believe everything you read.

  • Hi there! I take it from the (?) after our name that you’ve never heard of AdoramaPix, or you think we suck. I’ll assume the former, unless you let me know.
    We’ve been around for awhile on line and before that in New York, we are the digital photo processing division of Adorama Camera. We’re known for professional quality digital prints at the best prices. Check us out: http://www.adoramapix.com
