Wireless Memory

HP has developed a wireless data chip that is miniscule enough to be applied to virtually any surface.

This tiny chip could be used to put medical records on a patient's hospital armband, photos of your vacation on a postcard from the beach, or even your ex-girlfriend's phone number and 8x10 glossy on about 450 photocopied leaflets you can distribute around campus.

The idea is pretty revolutionary. If everyone has access to tiny, stickable wireless data chips, personal information might become the new junk mail. It'll be like:

Husband:
Honey, we got the Clarksons' hospital bill in the mail by accident. It's got Dale's complete medical history embedded in it.

Wife:
Don't worry, dear. Just walk it down to their mailbox. But don't forget to save Dale's hospital records on the laptop along with his insurance statements, social security number, savings account numbers, and complete traffic citation history. You never know when that stuff will come in handy, right?

Ha ha! What an exaggeration I'm making!
