The Stealth Hippopotamus: How about NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


Am I the only one here that likes to get away from the damn thing?!

Nope.

phlegmmo: FTFA: There are concerns, however, that the technology could be exploited, and that someone could hack into a person's body.

Well no sh*t but there are some people that will be overjoyed to sign up for it.

Sounds like that'd be a pain to upgrade every 2 years.

Hey, why don't we just pee in the drinking fountain?

borg: If you think Butt dialing is bad now...

Would it be possible to arm dial on accident? Say you were fooling around with somebody who wasn't your spouse and accidentally called them while doing so. Hilarious.

That's my thought. I'm a gadget geek, and am already chomping at the bit to replace my just about two year old HTC EVO 4G. It's not that it's a bad phone... it's actually great. It's just that, there's better now, and it's killing me. If it was implanted in my body? ZOMG... Problem.

So what did Adobe do to cause them to drop support?

oops wrong thread...

My phone already gets under my skin...I really don't need it under my skin.

I would love to be able to talk on the phone while, say, riding in the back of a cop car.

You have a cell phone. I have a nail gun.

This might just work.

Joker did it first!

I'm sure this would go over very well at the colleges during exams.

Soooo when hit by a microwave beam they will run around, screaming, trying to claw it out?

Phones under your skin? Call me back when they have the Icarus Landing System and then we'll talk.

Well, it's kinda like that.

Was expecting the one with the rubber band, actually.

And lets not forget those lovely and quite indiscriminate microwave crowd control weapons. AKA: Active denial systems.

If we can move away from the phone/pda/handheld pc/total tech center idea of a phone, it could work. Implant a keypad in my arm and a speaker near my ear canal and a mic in my jaw. Fine I will never play Angry Birds on it but hey that is what my tablet is for. Imagine a phone only for making calls.

Considering how fast new types of phones are coming out, how would you upgrade? You have one implanted and you're stuck with it until the next invasive surgery?

Adam Jensen approves.

Lor M. Ipsum: the guy is using his body as a touch interface.

Saiga410: Imagine a phone only for making calls.

I don't have to. I grew up with them. They were rugged and reliable and usually had good duplex sound.

bingethinker: If you get behind on your payments a guy with a rusty X-Acto knife comes by your house to repossess the phone.

Yeah, just like they repossess them now, right?

Joke would have been funny if it made any sense.

Why not just go with some kind of wrist strap holster dealy? Seems a bit less...invasive.

That would be great, if I never needed another phone.

But yeah, as someone else pointed out, phone implants will more likely be in the form of smaller and separate components (speaker, microphone, battery, memory, etc.) distributed logically, than a big iPhone-shaped thing shoved between two ribs.

TPC?
The Phone Company.


Came for Schneider. Leaving satisfied.

For you younger farkers who didn't get Zorgon's reference. See The President's Analyst, an awesome satirical comedy starring James Coburn. William Daniels was hilarious.

So either your memory is so bad that you constantly forget it, and this is the equivalent of a mom pinning a note to her ADHD kid's chest so it actually gets to a teacher. In which case, I'd think you'd want to have your brain fixed, instead of installing the shiat you constantly forget into your body.. Or you are literally so farking lazy that you cannot stand the idea of carrying around a smartphone that literally gets smaller and lighter every single year. And the only downside being that you must fully trust a profit seeking corporation to not abuse the fact that they now have with this unprecedented access to the inside of your body. Christ, I can just see it now, rfid chips embedded in products everywhere, and your shiny new wetware phone dumps euphoria inducing chemicals whenever it detects nearby products from said corporation, not to mention actual sinister purposes...

I want you to print out what you just wrote and keep it somewhere safe. You know, somewhere where you won't forget it. Wait ten years. Find it again. Repost. Tell everyone you still agree with every word of it.

Go on, I dare you.
