BURLINGAME, Calif., May 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today Eye-Fi Inc.
(http://www.eye.fi), makers of the world's first wireless SD memory card,
announced an extended product line-up designed to make photo sharing easier
and meet the needs of individual users.
"We understand that each photographer has his or her own way of sharing
memories," said Jef Holove, chief executive officer of Eye-Fi. "Some users are
thrilled to easily upload photos from camera to computer, while others want a
much richer photo sharing experience, even when away from home. By offering
three different Eye-Fi Cards and new features, our goal is to give consumers
exactly what delights them."
Eye-Fi announced three new wireless SD memory cards, including the Eye-Fi
Explore, which will automatically add geographic location tags to each photo
and will allow users to upload their memories from Wi-Fi hotspots. The
original Eye-Fi Card, now called Eye-Fi Share, is designed for the
photographer who wants to effortlessly upload images directly to their
preferred photo sharing site in addition to their computer. And, the Eye-Fi
Home is aimed at users who want to simply and wirelessly upload digital
memories to their home computer.
