Eye-Fi Anniversary Edition - 4GB

Wirelessly upload photos to your computer and to your favorite photo sharing, printing, blogging or social networking website. It’s never been easier to share your memories while they are still fresh.

Like the Eye-Fi Home, the Eye-Fi Share wirelessly connects to your home Wi-Fi network and uploads your pictures. It delivers photos to your computer, but also includes our unlimited, secure web sharing service to automatically upload your pictures to your favorite photo site. Choose from among more than 20 of the most popular websites and some up-and-comers too. View the complete list of Online Destinations for your Eye-Fi Card.

The Eye-Fi Share offers the added convenience of uploading your photos, even when your computer is turned off. Using it’s Smart Boost capability, the Card will determine the most efficient path to upload pictures, going quickly to your computer if it’s on and then from there to the web if you’ve elected to share online, or going straight to the web if the computer is off. The photos will be stored securely and delivered to the computer the next time it is turned on.

Upload to Computer

All Eye-Fi Cards can automatically deliver your pictures to your computer. PC or Mac. It’s as simple as choosing a folder. The card will then wirelessly deliver your photos to that destination and even arrange them in neat, date-stamped folders.

Your photos can only be delivered to the computer and folder you’ve chosen, so you don’t have to worry about your photos going elsewhere, even if you’re in a different wireless network. And, if you’re a Mac user, you can choose to have your photos delivered directly into iPhoto for the best experience.

To receive photos in this mode, your computer must be turned on and running the Eye-Fi Manager software. It’s a fast and convenient way to upload your photos for later enhancing, publishing or archiving. No messing with cables or cradles.

Now it’s truly effortless to share your memories with friends and family. The Eye-Fi Card wirelessly connects to your home Wi-Fi network and uploads your pictures to a photo sharing or social networking website of your choice. Select one from more than 20 sites.

Behind the scenes, the Eye-Fi Service intelligently handles your photos, getting them to your chosen site, taking care of log-ins and passwords, even re-sizing pictures if your destination requires it. It’s secure and private, and photo uploads are free and unlimited with Eye-Fi Share and Eye-Fi Explore.

You can save your photos on your computer and share to the web with no extra effort.

When your computer is off, Eye-Fi’s Smart Boost technology will automatically send photos from the camera, through your home Wi-Fi network, to the Web-based Eye-Fi Service. The Eye-Fi Service will then deliver images to a photo-sharing site and to your computer when it is eventually turned on. In this approach, the speed at which images are transferred from the camera is paced by the home’s Internet connection.

And, if your computer is on while you are uploading, the card will deliver your photos there first at an even faster speed and then send them up to your photo sharing site from your computer.

Eye-Fi celebrates a year with 4GB Anniversary Edition SD card

Eye-Fi has been adding in some pretty swank extras of late for its current stable of wireless SD cards, but we're pretty sure you'll agree that we're due for some new hardware. Today, the outfit is taking the wraps off of a limited edition 4GB Anniversary Edition, which boasts double the capacity of its other cards and "improved memory speeds." Full release is after the break.

EYE-FI UNVEILS THE 4GB EYE-FI ANNIVERSARY EDITION

Eye-Fi Celebrates First Anniversary with 4GB Limited Edition Anniversary Card and the Win of Popular Science's Best of What's New Award

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 12, 2008 - Today Eye-Fi Inc. (www.eye.fi) announced a new, limited edition card - the Eye-Fi Anniversary Edition - to celebrate the one-year anniversary of its first wireless SD memory card for digital cameras. Eye-Fi also announced it has been chosen as one of Popular Science's 2008 "Best of What's New" award recipients.

"For the past year, we've been reinventing the way people save and share their digital memories," said Jef Holove, CEO of Eye-Fi. "From automatic uploading to geotagging to sharing on the go, we've aimed to help everyday photographers save their memories more often, share them more quickly, and add more context to their collections."

Available immediately, the new Eye-Fi Share Anniversary Edition doubles storage capacity to 4GB and features improved memory speeds. Coupled with the recently announced wireless performance upgrade, the Anniversary Edition offers a no-compromises Eye-Fi experience. Like the original Eye-Fi Share, the Anniversary Edition wirelessly sends photos from a digital camera to a computer and to one of more than 25 online photo sharing sites.

Since the Eye-Fi Card launched one year ago, millions of photos have been uploaded to the Web, and users report that they upload and share photos with family and friends more frequently.

"With the introduction of the digital camera, the photography industry faced a real challenge - photos trapped on cameras that were never shared or printed because of the work involved," said Alan Bullock, associate director of InfoTrends. "The industry needs pioneers like Eye-Fi who recognize the bottlenecks, and build innovative solutions that move the market forward."

Over the past year, Eye-Fi has given more and more people the ability to effortlessly share their digital memories and offered a rich, meaningful experience for users. Eye-Fi has:

• Helped Take Geotagging Mainstream: Geotagging is a fast growing trend, and through a partnership with Skyhook Wireless, Eye-Fi has automated the process to make it easier and more compelling for all consumers. Using the Wi-Fi embedded in its cards, Eye-Fi uses Wi-Fi positioning to determine where an image was captured and adds a geographic tag to each photo.

• Pioneered Uploads-on-the-Go to the Top Photo Sharing Destinations: Now users can upload photos away from home at more than 10,000 Wayport hotspots with their Eye-Fi cards - even without a computer.

• Introduced the "Eye-Fi Connected" Program: Eye-Fi has launched the "Eye-Fi Connected" program to help other manufacturers tap into the benefits of Eye-Fi's wireless photo sharing ecosystem. Nikon has released two Eye-Fi connected cameras, the Nikon D60 and D90, both optimized for Eye-Fi cards. Lexar introduced the co-branded Shoot-n-Sync Wi-Fi(r) Memory Card that uses Eye-Fi's patent-pending technology and online service.

• Integrated Social Networking: Eye-Fi announced integration with Twitter and the availability of RSS feeds so users can notify their networks in real time about recent photo uploads, and photos can be viewed instantly.

• International Expansion: Due to high demand, Eye-Fi plans to expand into Japan and Canada by the end of the year. Now more people worldwide will have the ability to enjoy the benefits of Eye-Fi's products and services.
