Actually, M&M p20 says you can use headware memory as both active and storage memory for a C2. You can run programs in headware memory, you just can't run them WITH headware memory (ie, you need some external source of computing power).

I'm fairly positive that M&M said that all devices in an eye or ear are autimatically linked, you only need one router jack going o the eye or ear to link all the devices within. I'd bet my left testacle on it.

That's quite a bit of certainty. Or are you not telling us something? ;)
I'll look that up when I get the chance, if someone doesn't beat me to it.

Sorry folks, he keeps the testicle. MM page 46, first full paragraph in the second column:

QUOTE
Devices that are considered accesories to another device do not need to be linked in this way, as they are already integrally connected to the device to which they are an accessory. For example, thermographic vision does not need to be linked to a cybereye, nor does an ear recorder need to be linked to a cyberear.

So, my original point stands. If all that you're linking is HeadMem, a Datajack, Eye stuff, and Ear stuff, then you do not need a router. The Datajack has 3 free router ports built in, which conveniently matches the number of things you're tying in. Provided you're using eye and ear replacements, of course.

But what if the eye/ear stuff happens to be in a natural eye or ear?

Yay! I get to keep my testacle!

You can't run a router to a meat part, theres absolutely no point in it. If you have a bunch of mods IN that eye, and want all of them routed then yeah, they all need to be linked individually. All the more reason to get a cybereye.
