Comments about PocketWizard CM-E3 Motor Cord:
I use this motor cord when shooting basketball games. I hook a Pocket Wizard II to my Canon and a mini-pod and place it on the floor. I have a 7D as my main and connect another Pocket Wizard II to it as well. While shooting a player going to the net, I get 2 perspectives for one shot. Two shots for the price of one! For those of you who are wondering, the PW will quickly focus your shot prior to firing too. I do recommend doing a manual focus, but the AF will work. Great to get a closeup and a full body of the athlete.

Comments about PocketWizard CM-E3 Motor Cord:
I used this cord to trigger a Canon G10. It works... most of the time. Using a pair of Pocket Wizards with fully-charged batteries, the remote camera would fire about 70% of the time, and there's a ~1 second lag between signal transmission and camera firing. In other words, there's no way to use this with a setup that includes triggering strobes. I wouldn't advise using this for anything mission-critical.
