Yes thanks, I looked at that project, but I prefer the WiFi solution for
three reasons:
- no wires to get tangled or trip me
- WiFi is much,

The card is specified to utilise the 802.11n WiFi standard, which
according to Wikipedia will give 100 Mbit/s. AFAIK, the USB2 supports
480 Mbit/s.

That's not really how it works. Eye-fi uses skyhook's database.
There's an explanation of how that was created here:

In Igor's example the photos would be tagged as being taken in
Houston, even though the Wi-Fi wasn't free. All eye-fi needs is the

..and it really only gives you the position of your access provider.
The Houston photos should be tagged as well. It doesn't seem like it
requires login to the wi-fi network to capture the address Eye-fi uses
to generate location data. The network's address just has to be in
Skyhook's database.

The wires support 480Mbps, yes, but once you load up the entire USB driver
stack the resulting actual in-use speed is much less than that. Have you
ever timed USB2 xfers? One word for them: abysmal.

in most urban locations there are multiple access points in range so
it's not too hard for Skyhook to figure out that one is no longer where

No problem, I'm betting that integrating a real GPS module in a DSLR
