I was more thinking it would be used where it was not practical to have 
a TV or display, (eg a solider in the field, or a spy that didn't want 
others to know what they were doing).

Still, if there is a demand and the implant process is developed then I 
don't see a reason why it should remain expensive, after all it's just 
going to be a chip and a few wires :-)
