Perhaps you have heard of Eye-Fi, an SDcard that allows for the wireless transfer of pictures to an internet-ready computer.

Eye-Fi has been getting a lot of flack because its upload speeds from camera to computer are somewhat slow, but the company has just recently announced that they intend to make the process twice has fast. They also wish to expand their market from the United States, and sell their product in Japan and Canada.

In addition to this news from the company, Eye-Fi is having a price drop. It was about $99, but is now going to be about $59.

While the transfer rate is slower than having the card in your computer, it does save time by not having to take the card out of the camera, put it in the computer and then replace it in the camera. Where and how you want to spend your time is up to you.
