i have an idea, a small ear implant that allows you to give mental commands and accesses any thread on this forum and reads the content for you. You can then dictate responses.

And members could submit their own voice style to be different when heard

Oh, then for each race style, in addition to having the different speech text, we'll also have a voice file for each type of message. The sound will be played when you read the message from another race. So Klingons will speak in the Klingon language, we'll have the Borg saying "Resistance is futile" in the Borg voice, and so on.

Maybe if you get a fax, you'll see the image in your mind. Hey, maybe you can be surfing the web in your head, too. Perfect for those boring meetings! Or play SEIV in your head, nobody will ever know what you're doing.

At least you wouldn't have to ever wonder about, Never leaving home without it!

Could really mess with telepath's, though. An image is coming to me. NO, Wait. I have another image coming to me! Sorry, it is a FAX from the wife!

A british company is working on a tooth that can recieve calls from anybody; the bad points are that you have to pull one of your teeth in order to insert the teeth, and you cannot send calls back; you can only hear them I guess that's good for people who likes that kind of thing.
That sounds SO much better than, say, an ear ring...
