There are people using WiFi cards with SD=>CF adapters, if you get the right 
adapter.

Oly was offering Toshiba WiFi cards with some cameras a while ago, so one might 
assume they are OK. They get decent 
reviews on Amazon and the Class 6, 8GB for $25 is way below others. Class 6 is 
probably as fast as your current cameras 
can use.

That's cheap enough that I may try one. Using a 'real' camera with instant 
iPhone availability might be nice. :-)

Obviously, anything you use must have WiFi, and probably a recent version. I 
think you would need a new device. 6-7" 
Android tablets are very inexpensive these days, if you just want to view them 
and email. A current smart phone does 
much more. Whatever it is, more memory is better for this use!
