I thought this was a joke/fake story when I first heard about it on another forum, but apparently, it's true; there's a company out there that's developing an MP3 player in the form of a breast implant.

Hmm, interesting. ;D My only question is, if a woman with one of these breast MP3 implants wants to change a tune, would she have to reach down into her boob to change the song? That would be interesting to see.
Computer chips that store music could soon be built into a woman's breast implants.
One boob could hold an MP3 player and the other the person's whole music collection.
BT futurology, who have developed the idea, say it could be available within 15 years.
BT Laboratories' analyst Ian Pearson said flexible plastic electronics would sit inside the breast. A signal would be relayed to headphones, while the device would be controlled by Bluetooth using a panel on the wrist.
According to The Sun he said: "It is now very hard for me to thing of breast implants as just decorative. If a woman has something implanted permanently, it might as well do something useful."
The sensors around the body linked through the electrical impulses in the chips may also be able to warn wearers about heart murmurs, blood pressure increases, diabetes and breast cancer.
