Default Eye-Fi Cards in a200

Anyone know if the Eye-Fi Pro cards will work in the a200 using a Delkin SD-CF adapter?
There's no tethered option and I really want to go wireless for my shoots -> on demand printing. I won't buy an a230/330 as the build quality is horrendous.

Anyone know anything?

Cheers

I have an a330, and an eye fi. even with the 330 having a SD card slot it struggles to give enough power to the card, and sometimes you lose your images.

In the a450, its very mildly better, but still not reliable. I wouldnt consider this an option for a studio situation imho

Sucks ass. It looks like my budget has just exploded. I can get a a380 to do it at around £500 or I can get an SLTA55 for £600, so I think I'm going to get the a55. I wasn't planning to head down that route for a few years but it would be insane to buy a 380 at near the same price. Just have to check that the a55 does cabled tethered shooting too
