CES 2010: Eye-Fi’s Pro X2 and Eye-Fi Center [updated]
Special Features
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Here’s Eye-Fi’s Pro X2 card in the flesh, er box. They finally got one in on the show floor at CES just in time to win a Best of Show award. And for at least two very good reasons.
The Eye-Fi Pro X2 represents a further refinement of Eye-Fi’s original idea of wireless memory. Obviously, this is the best yet. Not only will it wirelessly upload your pictures, it will do it over 802.11 N, if it’s available. Those pictures (or videos) will find their way to various web services of your choice, and/or your computer. And what makes this card better than the rest is its “endless memory” feature. This allows the card to identify pictures that have been successfully uploaded to all intended destinations, and then deletes them. This effectively turns that 8GB of memory into much, much more. And it’s a feature that you’ll only be able to get on the Pro X2.
One update current Eye-Fi owners can look forward to is an update to the Eye-Fi software. Actually, they’ve rewritten it as a regular app; it won’t be necessary to connect to the internet for all setting changes anymore, and you won’t have to open a web browser to use it. It’s called Eye-Fi center.
This should be pushed later in the month to all users.
Update: Just got in some more images of the inner workings of the Eye-Fi Pro X2 card. I just love the amount of technology they squeeze into a standard SD memory card.
