Actually, there is currently a rudimentary form of cybereyes (you get a general 3-d outline of things in your way) in use today, and cyberears are currently in development by Texas Instruments. There's also some research going on for a doodad that can be placed in a paralysed person's brain which would let them move the mouse cursor on a screen (although moving a wheelchair is likely not far off.)
Cyberteeth are all very interesting, but I'd rather have my phone in a over-the-ear pickup/speaker system similar to the bluetooth models sold today. It would be fantastically hard to do, but possible. -------------------- Not until we find an edible, giant-sized Keith Richards at the bottom of the ocean.

Just in case you're being serious... Bluetooth is a wireless protocol. A very shitty one, at that. -------------------- Think!

In case you aren't reading the Decker equivalent of this thread, and you don't get the del.icio.us RSS feed, check out this - trodes for making music by neural impulse.

Yes, tanka. Thank you. I was just enjoying the coincidence while you merely shudder with dread.
