"It's the first time Spence and his team have managed to fit an electronic device (complete with power source) into the eye.

He wants to create a prosthetic eye with a wireless video camera in order to film his experiences." – Alan Cheslow

"the PS3 got the most use out of their console — an average of 10.6 percent of the time for the duration of the poll. The Xbox 360 followed directly behind that with 10.2 percent, while Wii owners gamed a sad 6.8 percent of the time. The Wii also came in last place in terms of total days used during the poll, with an average of 5 days (PS3 and Xbox 360 users averaged 6.8 and 7.1, respectively)." – Alan Cheslow
