Easily done. In fact, the only thing you would have to do is have some kind of subprocessor that keeps dumping all unused data past the 10 minute mark. One of the things I thought should have been brought over from SR2 to SR3 was the heardware subprocessors.

Cyberware scanners would pick the explosives up. These scanners are high-tech ultra-sound devices that analyze shapes and patterns. If you shaped the explosive to look like a piece of mundane cyberware: datajack, cybereyes, simlink, etc.

yea, but you could get a cranial nuke too...

either way, the process is more expencive than the explosive, or the payment you have to give some zelot to blow himself up.

well, feel free to use it all you want.

you'll need a cyber-eye or two, and a hard-wired headware radio.

but other than a couple of MP for the deticated stream file there's not much to it.

What about the memory issue? I get some of that, but no processor. Or would that be a function of the radio???

It'd have to be able to send video, not just audio.  I can't remember if they have those, though

I don't have a clue. But it really only has to be data. You could transmit an MPEG file like that I would guess. And you can't tell me all media won't just be computer files in 2060.

There's probably some hardcore fans who still have CD's, tapes, etc.  Even IRL, you still see people wanting the old vinyl records.

That's a good point. But the broadcast standards would probably all be digital, or the next thing big thing yet to be invented.
