Quick question: can you install a Commlink (normally an Headware) in a Cyberarm?

As far as i remember: yes.
Cyberware either has an essence or a capacity cost. If the Piece of Gear has a Capacity Cost, it can be installed into a Limb for no essence Cost. |

Ears and eyes do not count.
You can only put eye-stuff or ear-stuff into these. You can NOT put anything that is NOT eye or ear stuff into eyes or ears . . |

Good point: it's *limb* capacity, not eye or ear. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

yeah, but introducing several different kinds of capacity was still dumb i say . .
you don't want something to fit in there? give it too much capacity needed! one capacity for EVERYTHING and eyes/ears simply get less capacity than would be needed to put some stuff into them . . And limbs get less capacity than a vehicle. And Armor is somewhere in between . . as are glasses, contact lenses, goggles and the such <.< |

I dunno about that, but they could certainly have handled the various flavors of Capacity much better. Eye, ear, cyberlimb, visual/audio sensor enhancements, sensor packages, armor mods… each of these has separate and incompatible 'capacities'. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) That's off the top of my head, there are probably more.

Why?
You can get whole EYES in there . . Don't tell me a Camera in a Finger or toe is silly enough not to allow it . . Granted, there's basically no reason why anybody would do it, but still . . Well, okay, so there's one reason . . filming up under womens skirts . . |

That's not a visual enhancement mod, that's a visual sensor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
