Excellent idea, too few formats! [Posted on 2008-07-03]
I love the convenience of this card. The download software is very easy to use. After initial setup, it works on it own! I like that it creates new folders by date as it downloads the photos. Makes organization quite easy. Download speed is quite fast. The only thing I would like is more formats for the cards (other sizes). This may not be technically possible, but I would buy another one for my small point-and-shoot camera as well, if Eye-Fi made a Memory Stick version... Great product!
Eye Fi with Canon SD550 and 30D w/Compact Flash Adp. [Posted on 2008-07-04]
This has turned out to be a great product both for personal use and business/professional use.
The product works flawlessly with my SD550 point and shoot. My initial experience with it in my 30D was somewhat of a headache do to trial and error. Here are the steps I took to get it working. It did not work at all by default.. initially I got a CF error and I thought it had completely killed the card.
1. First I checked my firmware on my canon 30D.. I was one behind.. My camera was running 1.0.5 and I downloaded 1.0.6 from canon.
2. After the camera was updated I put the eye fi in the card adapter and put it in my 30D camera.. I still got the CF error. So I tried formatting in the camera and that corrected the CF error. I could take pictures with it.
3. I put the EyeFi card in the USB reader and plugged it into my computer and the Eye Fi manager was finally able to initialize the card again and restore the wireless settings..
4. The card now works both in my SD550 and my 30D.
Its possible that I could have just formatted the card to begin with in my 30D without doing the firmware update and that would have corrected it.. I dont know for sure.
You do see a reduced wireless radius while in the 30D probably due to the compact flash adapter. I added High Gain antenna to my router to help compensate.
Be very careful on which CF adapter you buy for this card. If you use the wrong one it can kill the card.
I recommend this store for the CF adapter. They have been thoroughly tested by the store and Eye-Fi.

Eye-Fi Card Problems [Posted on 2008-07-09]
Ever since I got it I have not been able to get it to work. Been with tech support via emails while they look at the logs. Since 6/25/08 and still ongoing. So at this point, I'm not much for this card.

Don't trust your precious pics to this card! [Posted on 2008-07-23]
My husband bought this for me for Christmas 2007 after I saw it on the Today Show. I thought it would be the coolest thing. We left for Disney World in January and I thought this the perfect opportunity for the first use. If I only knew what headaches it would cause! After about 25 pictures being taken on a Kodak EasyShare camera ( which I was told the card would be compatible with) the card would not take anymore pictures and kept saying on screen that the card needed to be formatted ( which I had done the day I received it as instructed in directions ). Needless to say I was upset, but not as much as when I got home and called tech support. They tried to do everything in the world over the phone to fix the problem. They told me they had been having trouble with Kodak cameras with this card! They said they could not do anything for me, but send me another card. That did not make any difference to me,because we have been to Disney World many times, but this set of pics were the most special! My 6 year old son has been a Star Wars fanatic since he was 3 and they have a Jedi Training Acadamy and he was chosen to be in it! So I had all those pics of him fighting with his light saber and several pics of him fighting DARTH VADER! He also had his pic made with his jedi master! It was a dream come true for him and I wanted to have them framed for him. But, because this defective card failed, I could do nothing and we will never have them! They even tried to send them to the tech guys at the company and they could not retreive my pics either. I would think if you make a product, you could fix it or open it to transfer pics to a CD. Guess not! So, I was told today JULY 23,2008 that they were sorry they could not do their job! I sent the replacement they sent me back and got a refund because I would not risk losing anymore precious memories! Be careful with this product!!!!!!!!!!!!1
