This seems like such a small thing right now. Looking forward to the interconnectedness of people and machines, this is going to be a watershed event for a lot of people. Cochlear implants are in 10s of thousands of people today, and being able to directly connect them and other hearing aids to mobile supercomputers is a huge huge step. I cannot even imagine what new interaction modalities emerge as a result of this.
