I'm reading reports that the new Sony SLT-A57 uses Eye-Fi cards with no problem.

tried the Pro X2 this weekend. I little slow on the upload, but not unreasonable for the file size. I like the auto upload to smugmug. Looks like I'll be using a bit more storage on SM going forward.

I read this entire thread, researched it and bought one. It is quite possibly the most finicky thing that I have in my bag. When it does work which is not often, it is very slow. All I really wanted was to be able to shoot "tethered" without using a wifi network - no cloud storage, no automatic uploads, just a simple transfer of jpg's to get a look on the laptop screen. I have a windows laptop that is a speed demon and D7000's and honestly can't make the Eye-Fi Pro work at all in a consistent manner. I am disappointed and off to buy a cable and research tethering software...

I have a D7000 and an eye-fi card and, though I don't use it often, I don't have any trouble when I do. The card is connected to my home network and I put it in the second SD slot in the D7000. I set the camera to put RAW files on the first card and jpegs on the second. When I wander around the house taking pictures they are automatically transferred to my computer via the eye-fi software.

I got that to work on the home network. I could never get it to work directly and most of the places that I want tethering for are not within range of a wifi network. It seems to be targeted to both using a wifi network (rather than direct connect) and to almost insisting that the photo's go online. That is another aggravation - I don't really want the RAW images floating around online. I was (am) looking for a simple wireless direct connection to my laptop in the field and this does not appear to be the right product.

I see that the Canon Digital Rebel T4i/650D is certified for Eye-Fi wireless cards.

Quick question about EyeFi cards that might apply specifically to the pro models, or anything in the product line: can you have multiple EyeFi cards upload to the same computer? Can you specify any file renaming options so that each camera produces a file that is uniquely attributed to that camera?
I'm trying to achieve a goal where multiple cameras are triggered simultaneously, the photos they all take are wirelessly sent to the same place, and then its easy to identify which photo came from which camera after the fact.

I see that Eye-Fi now offers 2 versions of the Pro X2 card; the former with 8GB storage, Class 6 speed and lower cost, and a new card with 16GB storage, Class 10 speed, at the $99.99 pricing.

On the NASDAQ site (in a video interview), "Eye-Fi CEO, Matt DiMaria, talks about capturing and transferring digital images in a flash."
