This seems like a pretty good deal if you're considering getting one of the Eye-Fi cards. Now they just need to launch this gDrive service, or whatever they're going to call it, so the space can be used effectively.

I'm still undecided - I think having to use Picasa to upload content is a bit cumbersome, but it is useful as a place to back up photos. What I'd really like to see is the ability to use it as a shared network drive, with technology similar to what Riverbed use on their client to make the performance useable. Not beyond belief that they will get to this point soon...

One version of the card will upload to a folder on your PC/mac. It'll log into a share on your PC on your home network. Check out the eye-fi website and look at the different versions.
