I haven&#8217;t yet seen an example of this working, but I have an Eye-Fi card on order and am motivated to experiment.  It&#8217;s apparently possible to <a href=\"http:\/\/gizmodo.com\/5511115\/how-to-turn-an-iphone-into-a-wireless-ipad-camera\">use an iPhone as an iPad camera<\/a>, but not having a 3GS, I can&#8217;t try that approach.<br \/>\nThe AirStash doesn&#8217;t offer camera-to-tablet syncing, but it seems like the next best thing, and it might enable more flexible import than Apple&#8217;s Camera Connection Kit presently enables.  With 16GB memory cards going for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/products?q=16gb+micro+sd&amp;hl=en&amp;aq=0&amp;oq=16\">as little as a hilariously low $30<\/a>, it&#8217;s easy to imagine taking a card or two on vacation, leaving all photos on it, backing them up to a tablet, and performing reviewing\/culling\/adjusting\/sharing on the tablet.<br \/>\nUnfortunately the AirStash is sold out at the moment, so I haven&#8217;t gotten to try it.  If anyone has kicked the tires on this or related devices, I&#8217;m curious to hear your feedback.
