Eye-Fi wireless memory cards

Anyone seen these things? They're brilliant! They're fairly expensive, but I would hope that as they become more available the price will go down. Happens with just about any other new product. I'd love one of these things because I am constantly taking the memory card out of my camera to get the photos off it. (hate cords)

Yeah, I have one. I use it in the 1d, which has both CF and SD slots. I configure it to write RAW to the CF and a medium-sized JPEG to the SD.

I have the app installed on my wife's iPad, and we use it for end-of-day picture shows when we're on holiday. When we were at my uncle-in-law's golden wedding anniversary party, it was great to be able to pass the iPad around at breakfast in the hotel the next morning with last night's shots on it.

Do they struggle a bit with large, full resolution photos?

I don't know! I'm essentially only using them to store JPG previews. that are deleted as soon as they're blown over to the iPad
