Eye-Fi Creates Mobile Web App

Posted by Joe Johaneman in "Apple Software (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad)" @ 06:30 AM

"Eye-Fi has quietly rolled out the Eye-Fi Mobile Center, a dedicated web app for controlling its wireless SD cards. The page gives Android, BlackBerry, iOS and webOS users a way of both viewing uploads as well as changing card settings. Most any setting that doesn't require the card to be plugged in can be changed, such as the upload destination"

I don't own an Eye-Fi card, but this makes me want one even more. You still have to do all of the original setup on your computer, but this will be super handy for photographers who want to change Eye-Fi settings on the fly. You cannot tether your Eye-Fi card to your iPhone, so you'll still need to be in range of a wireless network to upload pictures. The service is currently in beta. If you own an Eye-Fi card, will you be using this Web app?

Eye-Fi GeoX2 Announced, Geared for iPhoto and MobileMe

"Eye-Fi, pretty much the only company in town doing interesting things with SD cards, have just announced their newest card: the Apple-exclusive Eye-Fi GeoX2."

Just like the other cards in the line, this one will let you upload images via Wi-Fi, but the twist with this card is that it will directly interface with iPhoto and MobileMe, as well as Picasa, Facebook and several other online services. You also get the Endless Mode and geo-tagging features, and this card should be available in May of this year, retail price listed at $69.99 USD for the 4GB version.

Eye-Fi Geo for Your Geotagging Needs

Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (OS X)" @ 12:00 PM

"Although it isn't true GPS like the iPhone 3G has (and possibly the unannounced iPod touch), Eye-Fi is now offering Apple's iPhoto users a way to organize their pictures in Places without having a GPS-enabled camera."

Basically it geotags the photos so you don't have to do it later, allowing iPhoto's "Places" plot it on a map for you. Handy if you don't already have a device that tags your photos, such as an iPhone. You can also upgrade it for a $9.99 USD yearly fee so you can share the photos online at a variety of sites, including MobileMe, of course.

Eye-Fi Pro Is Now Available!

Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Other Apple Hardware" @ 12:00 PM

"Eye-Fi announced the immediate availability of its new Eye-Fi Pro SDHC memory card with Wi-Fi for digital cameras on Wednesday. The new memory card supports RAW image files, peer to peer file sharing, and includes 4GB of storage."

You can find a lot more about this nifty card at the Eye-Fi website, but the basics are as they outlined above, plus geo-tagging and photo and video uploads to 25 websites including Flickr and Facebook. Nice option to have when you need to save some photo's or videos, but at $149.00 USD, a bit spendy. I guess if it works for you though, and is the right tool at the right time, money well spent!
