Looks like an interesting product. One question...How does it handle raw files? Does it/can it upload them?

I have the Eye-Fi explore, the previous addition, and it does NOT handle raw files (at least on my Leica DLUX4), which was a little bit of a disappointment. Still, I can shoot in RAW+JPG, and it will automatically upload my jpgs, and I still can process the RAW files like normal later, although it is definitely not as convenient.

Yep, as infomofo says, no RAW support. But I don't think most photosharing sites support RAW files anyway... And it's better to have JPEG backups than no backups at all, right?

Its not as much about the photo sharing sites as it is about being able to upload the photos from the card and then being able to delete them and free up space for more pictures. I was thinking about using it more like a PC backup without having to have my PC with me.

Oh well
