lol, that is all I have to say.

I dread to think what kind of a bionic future we have!
This is really cool!

is it the 1st of April yet? Seriously though i have lost loads of sticks. Perhaps an implant with medical data or internal phone with camera to record what i see/experience/witness for insurance or court purposes. I could be tracked 24/7 no more missing persons.
Every man woman and child could be tracked monitored and recorded from birth to death. is this a future you would want a part of? As much as I love design and the balance of art within products to attain a sense of social utopia, I have a ‘heart of darkness’ that is proud to be wild and anonymous and dare I say it, Free.

It’s a joke, right?

Imagine being plugged in in your computer (which is standing under your desk) and trying to use the mouse to drag some files from your computer to your usb finger at the same time..

thats retarded

Retarded indeed. USB slots transfer electricity, so everytime you would plug in your Finger you would get shocked… Bionic Future without WiFi? Pass.

but you can´t use your hand while the USB is connect

Stupid, plain stupid. To call this design is offensive. This should have never been here.

the internet is a pretty funny and random place, for this i just have to say: OMG WTF ROFLMAO!

Now if only this would infer that a person could have their memory so easily uploaded/downloaded

Wrong finger to choose if you are going to do something like this – your index finger is necessary for fine motor skills. I’m also not a fan of using tech that has hit it’s market saturation for next generation ideas – I agree with FLX, I don’t want to live in a future without some kind of WiFi (or equivalent tech).

I would also get the USB port installed in my left nostril.

Thats just sick, and how would you want to type with both hands with one hand having the finger in the usb port all the way on the back of your laptop / mac.

Okay, this just went from interesting to perverted in 2.5 seconds.

Brings new meaning to “data” transfer, “network” meetings, or even swapping “personal” data.

For the slow ones, think “look ma, no hands”.

This is dangerous

But how can you upgrade,
if you put in a 2 gb and they invent a 1tb stick:p

设计师自己本身也觉得是 “你-傻逼”

Really Cool!!

I think they could have done more than one mediocre photoshop image, at least.

So you have to sit there with your finger in the device in the future? Im speechless, because theres too much to say.

yeah you put a wifi 150Go RAM-suppository in your ass, then you save your finger…

I actually have 2Gig USB finger! =)

It has Billix (http://sourceforge.net/projects/billix )installed and “Freddy Got Fingered” movie.

The USB stick itself is removable so I can have different sticks for different needs.

I dont think it is a design…

Sometimes reality is more amazing than concepts. A friend of mine actually has such a USB finger prosthetic: http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/when_reality_meets_product_concepts/

Sad…and pathetic.

How did you use your mouse if you have to keep your finger inside the USB port during a 15gb transfert?

next: THUMB drive! ahaha! I am so clever.

Do they come in other colors besides silver? I would totally get one if I could get it implanted in hot pink…

(+18) next of next: xxx drive(u know what i mean )! Infinite sharing of knowledge

Believe it or not, Software Developer Jerry Jalava has a prosthetic USB finger:
