Ugh.. 3 times bigger than a normal heart. :S
Well, still better than death, lol..
So yeh, we'll need bio-cells soon!

[Mastakilla]

3 times as large as a normal heart? Why not use it externally LOL

[~][FGS][Nobody~]

Hmm ye, that's a point.. but its goal is better quality of life and on that aspect, I prefer my heart to be inside me and not hearing it beating in my arm lol..

[Poor]

"and his heart grew three sizes that day"

It says one of the main concerns about this sort of stuff is the low battery life.. the technology of wireless-charging an electronic device already exists, I think they should be able to solve this quite soon. AUGS 4 EVERYONE

Unfortunately, yes.
Better would be, if the heart could use the body's energy to operate.
Or at least, place the accumulator inside too and add an external connector for loading them.
So, every night you plug yourself to the socket.

So one might die if they plug the mobile phone in the only free socket before bed time....oops wrong plug!!

Maybe a Kinetic charge would be better. Or Heat Transfer Charge if ever perfected.

Soon everybody will want one, it will allow people to keep over eating saturated fats!

[Mastakilla]

I'm holding out for artificial lungs
Hell, shouldn't that be easier then a freaking heart?!

[chin.democ.]

Yeah then we can keep smoking!!! Let's hope the NHS will fund this too so these unhealthy lazy gits cost the tax payer even more!!!

who needs discipline when you have artificial organs!!!!

[Mastakilla]

Wait, since when is there a stereotype about smokers being lazy?
