Anyone have experience with these? I got one for Christmas and frankly I've never even heard of them, so I was really surprised when my wife got it.

I guess after you load some stuff and program the card, it will automatically upload pics to your hard drive or pic hosting site of choice, without having to take the card out of the camera.

Will do. I'm still not 100% sure I want to keep it - it seems like it would be a big battery drain to upload as many pics as we take at one time, and I really don't have a problem with using a card reader anyway. The main roadblock right now is that this is an SD card (only wireless format as of now) and our camera uses a CF card. You can buy a converter for $20 or so, but everyone was out locally.
