It was easy and he was impressed.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It works as advertised. I am planning on using it to get breaking news photos out without having to open a laptop. Shoot. Send to iPhone. Edit. Transmit. Just that simple.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I know there are adapters but I hears they do not work very well. Any input would be great. Shane  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

While they actually have not come out and said no ... There seems to be a reluctance to invest the R&D for the CF format. As they point out, CF card usage, while it is at or near 100% for professional photographers .... CF cards only comprise 5% of the total market ... And that percanate is dropping each year ... In fact many pro and semi-pro DSLR cameras are now offering both CF and SD slots ... Not saying I agree with them, because I too would very much like to see a CF version ... But going purly by the numbers looking at the industry as a whole ... It may not be in their best interests to develop a CF version.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

For the Eye-Fi card to transmit properly it would have to be receiving power at all times. This is why the CF card adapters are not recommended for the Eye-fi.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

He showed me one brand that they had tested and found to work. I've looked online, but can't find it. The pic of it on my iphone doesn't show a product name, but it does say, "SDHC/SD Extreme CF Adapter". I've checked Adorama and B&H, but can't locate it.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

There are many folks using the Eye-Fi with the CF card adapters ... though Eye-Fi doesn't officially support this method ... it can and does work though not all CF adapters work equally well ... as Rob Galbraith noted here, down near the bottom of the page there is a table of current popular DSLR cameras and potential solutions: http://tinyurl.com/68haex3  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
