No - but if this is more then Sci-fi lore, and if I touch something with a computer connected to it (kinda like the movie GATTACA with DNA) that will be the end of privacy as we know it  |

I'd hate to have sync problems with that thing. I wonder what part of the body would be used for the flashing "loss of sync" lights.
Ooh, imagine an ARP storm? Wow, painful!

I'd be much more concerned with the latter.

Piercings?
And what about people with multiple body piercings? Will they re-radiate all of that as RF and be in defiance of FCC interference regulations? Will they have to wear wire mesh clothing?

Current on the skin
If you've ever stepped on one of those body fat measuring scales, you've had a small current running through your skin. Of course, this is a different idea than just measuring the resistance of your body to estimate body fat content, but the basic idea of the human body as a transmission medium for electric current is not a new one. |

i have to disagree. ten years from now, when we are shaking hands to transfer information, remember this discussion.
it would be so sweet to say something like "do you have that file?" and hear a person respond "yes, its in my ring finger."
it just kinda sucks that M$ got the US patent for it. bi11 is richer than he needs to be already

| Microsoft bashers... LOL
You people are so amusing!
Man has no job
Man takes all his money and starts company
Man sells products that make company successful
Man takes profits from successful venture and invests it into other products
Let's think about this,
If he didn't start somewhere, he AND WE wouldn't be where we are at.
If he were selling crap he wouldn't have survived nor would he have had the money to create this new technology.
If you don't like Microsoft then stop sending them your money. If you and enough other people do not like him then he will go away.
Do the math people and then you will not look so silly for the needless bashing. Someday MS might really get some competition and even get beat in the marketplace.
What will we have then? The bashers starting in on the new king of the hill and buying MS's stuff since they are NOT the new king... they are whiners line of products, the underdog, the anti-otherguy.
Human nature is so predictable
