There's really nothing wrong with the semi-perfect Eye-Fi, other than maybe that we could use more than a piddly 2GB of SD storage when we're away from our Wi-Fi network. To celebrate keeping the doors open for a year, Eye-Fi has announced the Eye-Fi Anniversary Edition card. It's a limited edition version of their classic Eye-Fi, doubled in size (features like geotagging can be purchased at an additional cost). You can pick up the Anniversary Edition at Costco for $US100 or on their site for $US130. We'll let you decide if that Costco card is worth it or not. [Eye-Fi]

Eye-Fi keeps kicking arse with their wireless SD cards, adding feed publishing capabilities through Twitter and RSS in a free software update. It was only a few weeks ago that another downloadable upgrade boosted download speeds and threw in MobileMe support, adding to an already massive list of support photo sharing sites. Owners should get an Eye-Fi Manager Software update pushed through automatically, and new customers can now find the cards on the Eye-Fi website. Note to other hardware manufacturers: DO MORE STUFF LIKE THIS. [Eye-Fi via Crave]

Eye-Fi just made a series of announcements that will please existing users. By October 5, their cards, new and old, will receive a firmware update to double photo upload speeds on all models.

That Eye-Fi Wi-Fi SD memory card isn't just useful for uploading pictures automatically whenever there's a hotspot in range, it's also useful for catching thieves. Not all thieves, however, just ones stupid enough to take pictures of themselves using a camera they stole that has an Eye-Fi inserted. This brilliant guy made off with $1000+ worth of Alison's camera equipment while she was on vacation, only to be caught when Alison saw her pictures--plus some that didn't belong to her--being uploaded onto her machine. Thankfully none of those pictures were of the thief "using" her toothbrush, if you know what we mean. And we think you do.

Not so long ago we reviewed the Eye-Fi, a 2GB SD card that adds Wi-Fi to any digital camera. Now the company is expanding their product line with the Eye-Fi Explore (US$129), Eye-Fi Share (US$99) and the Eye-Fi Home (US$79). The big news? Eye-Fi is now supporting hotspots and geotagging with the Explore.

We're not entirely sure why you'd wanna go about pulling apart the Eye-Fi wireless SD card—it's pretty obvious you're gonna find a flash chip, and hey, a Wi-Fi chip, too. But someone did anyway! The NAND flash is from Sammy, while Atheros supplied the Wi-Fi module, its 802.11b/g AR6001GL radio on a chip. For more teeny-tiny teardown porn, hit up Ikontools. [Ikontools, Thanks Mitchel]

We pretty much loved the Eye-Fi, which adds Wi-Fi to any camera. But today it got better with a downloadable update that makes it more Mac-friendly with direct iPhoto uploadage. [I4U]

The Eye-Fi 2GB SD Card that can wirelessly transfer pics to your computer just got FCC approval. There's an 802.11b/g Wi-Fi chip on board, allowing you to upload shots that you've taken without plugging in your camera. The feature's been around in other cameras before—Kodak's Easyshares come to mind. We're not sure about the features, but if this can somehow stream pics as you take it and delete them afterwards, you can have a relatively unlimited storage card (as long as the battery in both your camera and the laptop you're streaming pics to hold out).

Eye-Fi's looking to give your digital camera a nice upgrade this Fall when it introduces its first 2GB Wi-Fi SD card. The card will let any SD-friendly camera upload pics wirelessly to photo blogs or to your PC. Pricing will be a bit steep ($100), but it beats buying one of those fugly Wi-Fi cameras. – Louis Ramirez Product Page [via CrunchGear]
