If you've always wanted to combine a cell phone and tattoo into one gadget, then Jim Mielke has your answer. This concept "would be implanted beneath the skin on your arm -- taps into your bloodstream, converting the oxygen and glucose into electric power." Click here for first picture in gallery.

The display then "works" by changing the color of smart-ink pixels tattooed over the implant. It also acts as a touchscreen input device, so you could manage your cellphone calls by tapping on your arm. Most creepily, there's potential for a 3G video call to be shown on your skin

Things like this could revolutionize many aspect of technology, but i as a society i don't think we a ready for such modifications to the human body. Scientist are already having a hard time with working with the morals in our current society's in genetic projects. i.e. curing diseases/immunity to virus's/cancer/etc... At our current rate, it could take many years for something like this to be released for public use. Although i wouldn't mind having something like that, and with a lot more functions would be nice.
