By Nimravus Update 6-25-10: Please see below this review for a question I answered about the EyeFi's Geotagging feature. Thanks.First off, one limitation to this particular model forced me to return it:This one does not transfer RAW images or transfer directly to a computer, this was MY FAULT because I didn't read.I take RAW images so the one I need to get is the Eye-Fi X2 pro which will transfer RAW and directly to a computer via WiFi.So, I took this out of the package and popped it into my laptop's SDHC slot and it asked me if I wanted to install the software. Simple install, took seconds. I configured the wireless router WPA2 security settings with ease and it was connected.The Software lets you choose from 25 online companies to upload the pictures to, as well as the ability to simultaneously download to your computer (via your WiFi router, not directly from Camera to Computer).I chose to download pictures and video to both my backup HDD and to [...]I took it out and popped it into my Canon T2i which now has the Eye-Fi menu support, and took some pictures. The T2i immediately flashed the Eye-Fi connection icon and showed that it was transmitting. Within seconds, a popup from the tray icon on my computer indicated which file was being transfered with a thumbnail of it.The 802.11n is alot faster than the previous model Eye-Fi card's b/g. When it finished transferring, I verified that it indeed uploaded to my MobileMe account and it was on my backup HDD. Then, Carbonite immediately took over and started backing up the pictures from my backup HDD to it's online backup servers.So in a nutshell, I took the pics and without doing anything it uploaded to my MobileMe account and my External HDD. Then Carbonite backed up from my External HDD to it's online backup. Bamn, 4 copies (SDHC card, MobileMe, HDD, Carbonite) for secure, backed up pictures without really doing anything.I love this. I will be getting the Eye-Fi X2 pro 8GB just for the RAW picture transfers and Ad-Hoc mode (Camera to Computer direct transfer). If you do not take RAW or you will be using your wireless router for the transfer, then the Explore X2 is fine.UPDATE: I got 2 of the X2 Pro 8GB cards and wrote a review about it also.UPDATE: I've been using this in my Compact Point-and-Shoot through some battery cycles and I have noticed a difference in battery life. Its significant enough for me to take notice, I am getting about 2/3 the battery life by using this Eye-Fi. That is understandable I guess because it is transmitting via WiFi.Also, the card does get much hotter than a standard SDHC card so it does start to warm up the camera more than usual. This shouldn't affect anything.So be aware that this will shorten battery life, carry a spare and make sure both are fully charged before going out to take pictures. 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful. Just Amazing!! By Impetigo This is really a fantastic product and something that I had been waiting for a long time. I just got this on April 30, 2010, and have had a few days now to play around with it.The Good:------------------------------------------------1. TechnologyThis device is just fantastic and the engineers at Eye-Fi really deserve to be commended! Basically, what this device does (for those who are not quite clear on the concept), is it turns your camera (check compatibility on their website) into a wifi-enabled device that can upload photos directly (via wifi, not ad hoc -- you need Eye Fi Pro X2 for that) from your camera to your computer and/or favorite internet photo hosting site (picasa, snapfish, fotki, photobucket, etc.).This is how it works: you first connect the card to your computer using the supplied USB SD card reader and install/download the software (require internet connection obviously). Then you configure the software (including login info for your
