eye-fi sd cards in M8?

[ampguy]

anyone using them? How is battery life and speeds (relative to say a Sandisk extreme iii?)

I'm finding occasional needs to get images out of the M8 without wanting the hassle of unbuttoning the half case, and taking the bottom off.

I spoke to the Eye-Fi rep at PhotoPlus 2009 and he told me that the M8/8.2/9 is not a good camera for even the Eye-Fi Pro. The metal body that is the hallmark of the M series pretty much blocks the WiFi signal unless you set the camera next to the access point.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...

This may be OK. I'll have to try one out. Thanks.
