Any one has experience with this card. Read some good and bad review on this. Not sure it will work or not on my EOS-1D Mark II

Here is what I like the set up. Shoot at RAW

Set Backup ON
putting 1 x CF 8G and Eye-Fi 8 GB Pro X2 SDHC Memory Card

Photo should save in CF and Eye-Fi card and wireless to my notebook.
I don't need to upload to any web-site at the moment ...

Any suggestion ... ?

It depends on YOUR expectations of the Eye-Fi card.

Everything I've read about it is it doesn't work while you are shooting, it just stores the pictures in its memory, until you stop shooting and THEN it transmits. You have to stop and put the camera down and let it transmit...would be far faster to stop, pull out the card, and pop it into a reader (especially if you use multiple cards...shoot with one while the other is being copied to the computer).

Best Buy has the Eye-Fi Pro SD cards on sale this week. $30 off at $119.

Reviews all say that the card begins to transfer the files immediately and works on an Adhoc network fine. Interface software initial reviews said it was buggy, not sure if it's been since patched.
