There’s a whole lot going on at IFA right now, and while big announcements like the new Wave phones or Sony’s rather odd Android tablets get all the love, the little ones deserve some spotlight too. Toshiba has announced that they will launch the world’s first SDHC memory card with Wireless LAN functionality.

I know what you’re thinking: that sounds an awful lot like what the Eye-Fis do. You’re right, but only to an extent: while products like Eye-Fi’s Pro X2 allow users to upload photos directly from a camera to a computer or a smartphone, the transfers will only ever move in one direction.

Toshiba’s FlashAir cards can do that just fine, but the real fun comes in the form of peer-to-peer transfers. Owners of FlashAir compliant cameras can send and receive photos between each other, adding an extra level of functionality that should stand to set FlashAir apart.

While Toshiba neglects to mention any pricing details, the first FlashAir SDHC cards should see the sales floor in February 2012. Only the 8 GB Class 6 model is on display in Germany right now, but expect to see a few more size options pop up between now and then.

If the FlashAir ever reaches the widespread adoption rates Toshiba must be hoping for, it’ll be easier than ever to swap embarrassing photos while on the go. The big question: is this a blessing or a curse?

We can’t say we’re pleased that camera makers still haven’t called an armistice in their megapixel war, but a race for the speediest memory card is one battle we can get behind. Delkin says its 32GB Elite 633 SDHC is the fastest in the world, with 80MBps and 95MBps write and read speeds, respectively, handily trumping Sony’s new Memory Sticks that so recently impressed us. This card’s ideal for people who shoot gobs of 1080p video, 3D movies, and high-resolution shots coupled with RAW files, but with a price of $ 440, it’s only worth it for pros. And debutants.

Yep, this is another SDHC variation aimed directly at those that need/want extreme data transfer speeds — and who doesn’t? By utilizing the UHS-1 bus interfaces, SanDisk’s just-announced SDHC card achieves 45MB/s both reading and writing, which as the presser mentions, is perfect for those shooting RAW HD video and don’t wanna wait an eternity transferring the data to a workstation.

While the 45MB/s speeds are great, the UHS-1 transfer mode supports up to 104MB/s and there’s even a UHS-II mode that triples that rate to 312MB/s. This first-gen version however should probably be a righteous overkill for your Nikon D5000, though. That is if you can justify spending $ 100 to $ 299 for cards ranging from 8GB to 32GB when your Newegg-special SD card is working just fine right now.

Toshiba is offering full-size SDHC UHS-I cards at up to 32GB that promise maximum read and write times of 95MB/s and 80MB/s respectively, not to mention tiny microSDHC units that manage a very respectable 40MB/s and 20MB/s.

These numbers might be a bit less in practice, but we imagine you’ll get at least the quoted minimum transfer rate of 10MB/s. No prices on these just yet, but we will know soon.

Toshiba to the rescue.

Panasonic must be mighty annoyed right about now, because Toshiba’s seemingly got it trumped — when the first batch of lightning-quick UHS-I cards ship in November, Toshiba’s chips will be faster and larger on day one. As you can no doubt see immediately above, the latter company’s fielding full-size SDHC UHS-I cards at up to 32GB that promise maximum read and write times of 95MB/s and 80MB/s respectively, not to mention tiny microSDHC units that still manage a very respectable 40MB/s and 20MB/s. As per usual, these numbers are fast and loose, so don’t be surprised if you get a good bit less in practice, but we imagine you should be able to rely on at least the quoted minimum transfer rate of 10MB/s. No ludicrous early-adopter memory prices quite yet, but we imagine your ego will write the necessary checks as soon Toshiba takes care of that. PR after the break.

 Toshiba has announced their next line of huge SD cards coming in the Spring of 2010.

The 64GB card uses the new SDXC memory standard while the 32GB and 16GB use the older SDHC. There is a catch though, existing camera’s are not likely to be able to read the format without some modification. For example a flash of the firmware to update the features. But then again some of those hacks require that you have the hacked firmware on the card to load once the camera is started up. No worries though, I am sure some enterprising hacker will come up with something.

Toshiba is also claiming that with the new SDXC format they will be able to make cards up to 2TB in the near future, possibly 4TB.
