Some people think it is the eyeball (glasses), some people think it is the brain (NeuraLink). Some people think it is the wristwatch. The pins were an attempt at a pendant. I don't think anyone has tried the necklace, yet. A glove might also be interesting. If the peripheral keeps shrinking, it could be a ring, or set of rings, or an earring. Or a fairy that follows you around like in Ocarina of Time. We could write a theorem about convenience of use and capabilities at different scales for peripherals. It is worth noting that some sizes never really go obsolete, but rather enhance in power and capability.
