Since I went to CES a few years ago I've been interested in what comes out at the show each year. I heard about a couple of cool things yesterday.
One is the eye-fi card. It's an SD card that also has wireless network capability. You insert it into your digital camera and save images to it like any other SD card. However, you can also set it up so that it instantly transfers the images to your PC through your wireless network. Better than that, you can set it up so that the images can be instantly transferred out to social networking images sites like Flickr. Instant web posting of images as you take them. That's pretty snappy.
The other item is a GPS that includes a digital camera. The one I saw highlighted had only a two megapixel image size. Not ideal. Still, it stores the location information along with the images so you can do cool stuff like add your picutures as an overlay on Google Earth - showing the images and where they were taken. This could be VERY handy for those of us who have trouble, once some time has passed, in remembering where we were when we snapped a photo of that particular mountain view, beautiful church, or spectacular sunset.
