Music to somebody's ears

From my favourite news site, Ananova.com

quote:

Musical breast implants

Computer chips that store music could soon be built into a woman's breast implants.

One boob could hold an MP3 player and the other the person's whole music collection.

BT futurology, who have developed the idea, say it could be available within 15 years.

BT Laboratories' analyst Ian Pearson said flexible plastic electronics would sit inside the breast. A signal would be relayed to headphones, while the device would be controlled by Bluetooth using a panel on the wrist.

According to The Sun he said: "It is now very hard for me to thing of breast implants as just decorative. If a woman has something implanted permanently, it might as well do something useful."

The senors around the body linked through the electrical impulses in the chips may also be able to warn wearers about heart murmurs, blood pressure increases, diabetes and breast cancer.

Wow...

If they'd worked a digital radio into them as well, there'd be such obvious locations for tuning buttons.

I wonder if the real story was about implants that could warn of heart problems, diabetes, etc and then somebody said "what about implants' entertainment value har har har" and they came up with this?

How on earch would you change the batteries?

O.o Can you imagine hugging someone and it going off? And how are musical breasts exactly useful?

I'm thinking the scientists are bored and horny.

"If a woman has something implanted permanently, it may as well be useful."

Uh, if not useful in some way, why would they be implanted in the first place?

Some things I just don't get.
