The next next big thing? Ultralight payments.

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Total social control here we come. Every move monitored. Yes the OHS, convenience and simplicity arguments will all sound so good but freedom freedom will be illusionary.

Technology changes and expect the implant to need updating over time. Pretty silly really. Iris scan would be even more lightweight if weight is really a criteria as there's no extra weight to add.
Just move it!
