You pre-ordered the New iPad, you huge douche, but you do not yet have this: a body tattoo that vibrates when your phone receives a call or text. Nokia has patented just such an invention and hopes to market it in temporary and permanent options. From the BBC:

“Vibrating magnetic tattoos may one day be used to alert mobile phone users to phone calls and text messages if Nokia follows up a patent application.

The Finnish company has described the idea in a filing to the US Patent and Trademark Office.

It describes tattooing, stamping or spraying ‘ferromagnetic’ material onto a user’s skin and then pairing it with a mobile device.

It suggests different vibrations could be used to create a range of alerts.

The application lists Cambridge-based Zoran Radivojevic as the innovation’s lead inventor. It was filed last week and was brought to light by the Unwired View news site.

It suggests a magnetic marking could be attached to either a user’s arm, abdominal area, finger or fingernail.”
