Thumb LCD screens and cameras

Tiny LCD screens on your thumbs combined with miniature cameras on your thumb-pads would effectively create invisible thumbs, allowing you to efficiently text on phones where you are unfamiliar with the keypad.

       While I think little screens on your fingernails would be kinda fun, that's such a mundane use for them, it cancels out my croissant. Sorry.

       Especially since covering your entire body in tiny camera/LCD pairs, each communicating wirelessly with its complement on the opposite side of your body, would render you invisible. Hey, wait, I need to post that.

       Too late, that has already been posted.
