“Santa Clara – No one thought that last year’s craze of
inter-aural cellphone implants and inter-cranial pagers could be topped, but they were
wrong. This year, the cutting edge executive is surgically implanting her Palm Pilot
directly onto her hand. Just a few skin grafts and four screws, and the useless left
hand now becomes a highly efficient PDA holder. 
The Palm Pilot Implant surgery was developed jointly by
Palm, Inc. and Johns Hopkins Medical Center after extensive market research by Palm
revealed a strong demand.
‘Several executives complained about losing their PDA, dropping their Palm Pilot
or thieves stealing their Palm Pilot. At Palm we reacted to this customer feedback
by perfecting the Subdermal Palm Pilot Insertion technique along with surgeons at Johns
Hopkins. Now it would take a machete wielding madman to get your Palm away from
you.'” I have to admit, there have been too many Onion-wannabes out there, but BBSpot has been doing a great job at becoming the techie version of the Onion.
