I just put in a new order for a updated Eye-Fi card today to use while at CES so this is great news. According to VentureBeat the Eye-Fi team is bringing direct uploads of photos and videos from your camera to your smartphone over Wi-Fi. The idea is that with a simple firmware upgrade the Eye-Fi card will act as its own hotspot allowing the phone to connect to it and upload the photos using the phones app.
The app can also be used to backup the photos and videos wirelessly but that would quickly eat up your data bucket. It should be interesting to see how this develops. Hopefully Eye-Fi will be bringing this feature along with a BlackBerry app or at the very least a PlayBook app…
What do you think? Would such a feature interest you?
