SP-100 and Olympus Image Share.

I am still waiting for the camera to arrive. In the meanwhile I already read the manual, twice, watched every video that I could find, read the photoblogger review, looked at the photos that could be found on Flickr... Anyone knows any resources which would benefit?

About Olympus Image Share here are two questions:

-of Eyefi and Flash Air which is preferable, if any? The latter gets all the mentions in Olympus documentation relative to O.I.S. Amazon has the best deal for it too.

-also, while O.I.S. allows to download photos from the camera for sure, will it be possible to control the camera remotely using it?

Thank you for reading and the best time to you.

Found one answer: SP-100 and Olympus Image Share no remote control.

It was in the fine print at the bottom of the page.

Can't speak to Eyefi or Flash Air, but what I did come away with while handling this camera (and shooting a few images saved to my sd card) is that the the EVF is outstanding, very fast to focus, excellent build quality, and the images I shot looked to be on par with my SX50. After you get your's dialed in, I hope you post some of your images here. It's a very attractive camera.
