So who's got one? Seems to me that its a better setup than my tried and true wired Canon TC-80N3 Timer Remote. Wondering what people who have it think and if anyone has compared it to the Canon? Might be time to sell mine and upgrade? I really like the full functionality all while being wireless. Battery life seems extremely good. I always carry a spare with my TC-80N3 anyway, so that would be a wash.

Pearstone's Wireless ShutterBoss Timer Remote (Canon 3-Pin Connection) doesn't just trip your shutter wirelessly. It's also equipped to handle a long list of timer functions: self-timer, interval timer, long exposure timer, as well as controlling the number of continuous shutter releases. It works with a vast array of different cameras--just swap out the camera release cable for the correct camera. The transmitter works at distances up to 250' (80 m) on any one of 99 channels over a reliable 2.4GHz frequency.
Timer delays, exposure times, and intervals can be set for up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds, in one-second increments. You can also choose anywhere from 1 to 99 continuous shots or you can set the timer to take an unlimited number of photos. The receiver uses a CR2 lithium battery, and the transmitter uses 2x AAA batteries, which can last up to 4 years on standby.

Interesting find.
Did you jump and get it?
Let me know if you do :)
I have the one that uses cable. I find the cable quite hassle.
It is broken now not sure what happen. It just fire whenever she wants. It frustrates me during the shoot and so here I am in the market for a more reliable one.
