<p>Short-range networking of medical implants is a perfect application for ultrawideband radios; I wonder how that got lost in this effort.</p>

It says currently they actually *do* implant long wires under the skin,<br>
in operations that take several days.  That's NUTS.  But wireless might<br>
be almost as nuts, given how crowded spectrum is, and how critical these<br>
transmissions might eventually become for everyday activities of those<br>
implanted... Imagine being the FCC people who have to make this decision!<br>
