 my eye-fi October 24, 2008
They eye-fi card is definitely the only way to download photos. The only flaw is the lack of an option to delete photos on the card after downloading to your pc so you still have to eventually either hook your camera up to your pc or take the card out of the camera and put it in the pc to clean off photos.
 Works as advertised October 24, 2008
Works as advertised, I am a network admin. in a small company with one camera shared by 25 people for documentation in the same building. Installed the software with no issues on a Windows 2003 SBS Server and works flawlessly.
Amazing product. Thinking of buying one for home.
Did 5 stars more like 4.5 stars... because I cant find a function to delete the pics from the SD after sucessfull upload.
Cool and Clever Product...Ignore the Nay-sayers! October 23, 2008

For starters, I researched the heck out of this thing before I bought it. The average ratings made me a little leery of trying it out, but the concept seemed interesting and great enough that I couldn't help it, so I bought one to use with my Canon SD1100 IS.
It's been great.
Pros:
Easy setup. No more wires for uploading pics. Works with practically any photo service (I post my pics to Facebook in near-realtime). Great fun, and it's surprising how much more likely I am to use the camera knowing that I really don't have to plug it in and upload the pics. I just turn it on when I get home, and a few minutes later, I edit the album details online.
Speed is fine. You're really only limited by your upload speed of your ISP. I have FIOS, so it's pretty darn fast.
Cons:
Mostly what other people have already noted. You can't upload video. This is not the huge problem you'd think it is. You basically wind up plugging in the camera when get home after you took video. Not exactly like you're losing anything, you had to do that before anyway.
The pictures are downloaded from the Eye-Fi service to a folder you specify, but within that folder they're created with the date in the following format: "October 22nd, 2008" which means folders don't sort right unless you sort by folder create date or modified date. That's kind of a pain.
To the user above who thinks Eye-Fi only wants you to create an account to violate your privacy: don't be paranoid. Their privacy policy looks pretty reasonable to me. I'd strongly suggest you read it for yourself before signing up, just so you know.[...]
All in all, I'm happy with it, and more pleased than reading some of the overly-cautious reviews would have led me to believe I'd be. It's not perfect, but it's pretty darn good.

I have both the Home and an older model equivalent to the Share. Both work as advertised and make life easier. Unfortunately, they don't seem to upload any video clips stored on the card, and you do have to remember to delete the images that have been uploaded.
After using the original card, I realized I don't really want to automatically upload to a photo-sharing site. I tend to take a lot of pictures and prefer to choose which images I upload. I suppose you could just upload everything, then delete what you don't want, but prefer not to use the bandwidth.
 Won't work without Internet connection October 8, 2008

The idea is great, works smoothly, however it's complete rely on Internet connection, without it, you can't even transfer photos to your local PC.
