Eye-Fi Direct Mode Lets You Send Photos Directly to Your Phone or Tablet
The point-and-shoot camera has struggled in recent years as cell phone cameras have become increasingly powerful and mobile, but Eye-Fi still has faith in the dedicated camera. Known for its Wi-Fi-enabled memory cards, Eye-Fi is introducing a new Direct Mode for its line of X2 cards that lets you grab photos and video from your camera to transfer to your tablet or phone without any wires or ...
Some of the Switched team take to two wheels for the daily commute, and, although the streets of New York are hardly the safest place to be biking, we're usually more concerned about bike theft than we are swerving taxi drivers. Most of us use the low-tech approach of riding a cheap-o road bike, and lugging around a heavy chain to lock it up, but we're now considering the Halo bike lock concept. ...
If you thought Eye-Fi was a great invention already, then boy, do we have a treat for you. Here at CES, the outfit made famous for pumping out delightfully simple Wi-Fi SD cards for wireless image uploading is taking the next logical step by embracing video.

Frustrated by somewhat sluggish transfers from your otherwise spectacular Eye-Fi card? Fret not, as the company has just announced a forthcoming update at Photokina that will reportedly enable new and existing Eye-Fi owners to make "the upload of digital photos from camera to computer twice as fast."

It was inevitable, really. We've seen quick-footed thieves swipe GPS units that eventually led to their arrest and a bank robber who didn't even bother to close his clamshell while holding up the joint. Now, in the latest example of thieves caught by stolen gadgets, it looks like the nifty $100 Eye-Fi card -- which automatically and wirelessly uploads images to the Web from any camera ...
Taking pictures with digital still cameras has been popular for years. Now GPS devices are the johnny-come-lately of the tech you cool kids want. So what happens when you combine the two capabilities? Why, geotagging your photos, of course! Geotagging is the process of marking on each digital photograph the geographical location of where you took the shot. This information can be used to ...
Convenience is the name of the game if you plan on using one of Lexar's new wireless SD (Secure Digitalo) memory cards in your digital camera later this year.

If you're anything like most people, you like to say you're going to do something, but rarely follow through. Some of us can't even remember to do simple things like take the photos off our digital camera and send them to people, much less share them on a site like Flickr or Picasa.
