Eye-Fi 4GB Secure Digital (SDHC) Memory Card with built-in Wifi for $22.99. Free shipping with most $25+ orders. Recently sold for over $30.
It connects to your Wifi network, allowing you to upload photos on the card through your home wireless network. For example, when used inside a digital camera, it can upload pictures wirelessly to your computer without plugging in your camera or card. The downsides are:
If used in a camera, the wifi only works when the camera is turned on. So say you start uploading photos via wifi, and your camera powers itself off when idle, it will shut off the Eye-Fi card before it finishes.
The wifi is powered from your camera, which can drain its battery while turned on.
It uploads very slow.
If you're looking for a memory card, get one without wifi to avoid hassles. This product is really meant for someone with a specific need, such as no available memory card reader.
