Eye-Fi, Inc. (www.eye.fi) recently announced that Eye-Fi users have wirelessly uploaded more than one million photographs to the Web via the company’s new wireless technology embedded in SD cards. The company estimates that, “Every minute, seven photos are wirelessly sent from an Eye-Fi Card to one of Eye-Fi’s 25 online photo-sharing, blogging, printing and social networking Web site partners.”

“Users are showing us that the Eye-Fi Card is changing the way they share and save photos, and this milestone certainly underscores that,” said CEO Jef Holove. “With the Eye-Fi Card, uploading digital memories is automatic and effortless, so users are sharing photos with friends and family while the memories are still fresh. They aren’t waiting until their memory card is full or they have spare time to transfer pictures from their cameras.”

The Eye-Fi Card, the world’s first wireless memory card for digital cameras, was launched in the Fall of 2007 and allows users to wirelessly upload photos from their camera to their PC or Mac, and the Web.

“The Eye-Fi Card is a great way for Photobucket users to more easily keep and share their digital memories,” said Alex Welch of Photobucket, the world’s leading standalone photo site. “Eye-Fi works seamlessly with Photobucket, giving our users an easy way to get photos from a digital camera directly to their Photobucket album without having to manually upload photos from their computer.”

Eye-Fi also announced that it has expanded its retail distribution. Now, consumers can purchase the 2G Eye-Fi Card at Fry’s Electronics retail stores, or online at Apple.com. The Eye-Fi Card is also available at Ritz stores and other major online retailers.
