Not sure why me and not someone actually behind. :-)
I don't have an Eye-Fi card, for the simple reason that my five primary cameras all have WiFi built-in. Eye-Fi is SO
yesterday. ;-)
I have the latest LR on computers, iPad and iPhone.
Howsomever, all that apparently delicious syncing, which I COULD do, is
predicated on five things.
1. Cell coverage.
There is a generally true inverse relationship between my interest in subject and the number of shots I'm taking
and cell coverage, and especially coverage that will handle uploads of images.
2. JPEGs
I'm just not interested in JPEGS, until I'm forced to use them to display my images on the web. I don't MIND having
them in addition to Raw files, but I don't really have anything I want to DO with them.
3. Using LR
I have never liked LR. I have it up to date 'cause it comes with the $10/mo. and I am thinking of using its
cataloging functions. The mobile version seems OK, I guess.
4. A desire to edit images I've just shot on a portable device.
I've done some fun things to images with the (too) many photo apps on my phone and tablet. I've yet to be
interested in doing so immediately to images I've just taken with some camera other than the iThingies themselves.
5. Some sort of hurry to have the images I've just shot, hours to weeks away
from home, available at home.
I can show those I'm traveling with what I've just shot on the LCD and/or what I've shot that day on the netbook+
when I download them in the evening. I have no other pressing (or wrinkled, really) need for viewing, or sending, before
I get home.
I've got the hardware and software, but not the need or interest. We lead very
different everyday photographic lives. :-)

With Lightroom installed on your smartphone, you have the ability to sync
the Desktop and the Mobile. So, as a for instance...
My Panasonic DMC-L1 has an Eye-Fi card installed. I shoot pictures and can
either have the camera automatically upload images to my phone or do so
through my select and protect process. With that, the images transfer from
camera to phone and from phone to Lightroom library. Meanwhile, the desktop
Lightroom is monitoring and syncing to the on-line (Adobe storage) drive
and the images are appearing on the desktop as the images arrive.
Add "insult to injury", sorry, Moose, but I know this level of modernity is
frying your brain, you can perform Lightroom edits in the phone and they
apply in the computer.
I'm perfectly good with this $10 a month expenditure. It's cheaper than
buying a new camera.
