Trek's FluCard for wireless transmission of photos

[nightwolf75]

apart from the crappy product name, we might finally see a wireless SD card, a la Eye-Fi here SG.

abt time... now just hope they dun shoot themselves in the foot by pricing it sky-high....

 

[Dream Merchant]

Would it work for other flavours other than vanilla?

Singaporeans got discount?

 

[denizenx]

is it unique? patent?

 

[CS TAN]

Singaporeans got discount?

They didn't give discount on their patented thumbdrive to Singaporeans before so I am not holding my breath for it.

 

[pokiemon]

i would still prefer bluetooth function to be on the device not on the card.

alamak, the name sounds more like a portable device to test for bird flu.:bsmilie::bsmilie:

 

[Clown]

the name puts it on the same level as google's G-Buy...

 

[denniskee]

G-Buy...

......:sweat::sweat:

in this age, not only things must perform, but packaging is very important. maybe google staff dont know no hokkien?

Trek and Toshiba will be officially launching the FluCard in Japan in February.

The first batch of sales should start from 2Q.

[godzilla60]

from today's paper, it seems that it is officially launched for sale at leading stores (including challenger) at 100+

wonder if it is a good contender for eye-fi and if it works with SD-CF card adaptors?

........ i thought Trek was a bicycle brand??

price looks pretty OK

will ask Admin if we can get our hands on one for review .......

 

[hitendra]

[seii7]

cos i remember it was not available when I first got my card back then.

The FLU in flucard sounds disgusting...
of all names...

 

[Berkins]

Please note that Flu card does not support transfer of RAW files, only JPEG (due to inherent slow transfer speed) .

My advise is to get the other brand.

I just got my eye-fi last month, the flucard .... lost somewhere in home, have not use it for months

Please note that Flu card does not support transfer of RAW files, only JPEG (due to inherent slow transfer speed) .

My advise is to get the other brand.
