Bluetooth technology in artificial limbs

Just read this story on CCN.com ... wild stuff.

Basically, the story says the guy's prosthetic legs have bluetooth receivers (like in cell phones) in the ankles that communicate with each other so that one leg knows what the other is doing, thus resulting in more coordinated movement. Wow.

Can't help but think that as cool as this is today, it may be very commonplace in the future.
