Science fiction you say? The technology is here today. Nanobots swim through your bloodstream on their way to your brain. Once there, they with begin building the network you signed up for. But what will you have to look at when the cell phone is no longer being held in your hand?

We see it everyday in public places where there's a large concentration of people. At the gymnasium, are people lifting weights? Maybe a little bit, but they spend most of their time sitting on the weight bench staring into their cell phone. On the treadmill they're watching their cell phone as they walk briskly across the electric motor powered conveyor belt.

What will people be looking at when the cell phone is finally part of their brain? Will they be staring off into space as they view the 3D images flashing across their visual cortex? Will the gymnasium now be filled with people looking like as if they're daydreaming? I think so yes, and I'm trying to prepare myself mentally for how freakish that will look someday.
