Monkey See, Monkey Do

MSNBC.com reported today that a group of researchers have given monkeys neurological implants that let them control a robotic arm with only their minds. Take a few minutes and read the whole article... it's absolutely fascinating.

Let me know when the human trials are done... the biggest bottleneck between my brain and my code is my fingers. LOL I don't care if there are wires coming out of my head... give the end a USB port and I'll be fine. Then later on I can plug in the Microsoft Bluetooth receiver and go wireless. I can't wait for the Microsoft Bluetooth Brain Implant. It'll work with your keyboard, mouse, cell phone, PDA, and MSN Direct, with special drivers for Visual Studio “New York City” (by then they will have about run out of geographic codenames). Forget speech recognition telephony, thought waves will be sent throught your bluetooth phone directly to the server for processing.

Hey Microsoft, can I get all this in Longhorn?
