When I heard of the product I had similar concerns about uploading MASS/un-edited photos from my camera. (I snap 100 to get 2 flickr-worthy shots.) http://urltea.com/1zrp Excellent point about the categorization and naming of the photos issue as well. In my opinion, this product doesn't get interesting until they can work out deals with the hot-spots at Starbucks and hotels because it's not much of a killer app when it only works on the home computer. (How much of a hassle is it to plug in one wire at home anyway?) Thanks for the write-up. When I heard of the product I had similar concerns about uploading MASS/un-edited photos from my camera.

They have included the card in case you don't have an SD card reader. I know this doesn't really change anything in your workflow since most of the "let-downs' you have described deal with how the Card works when uploading photos to Flickr. Give them time, I am sure more features will be added in the future. The Eye-Fi Card can be configured with any SD card reader not just the one that came with the card.
