Finnish computer expert Jerry Javala has generated interest around the internet after word spread of how he had his finger prosthesis fitted with a USB flash drive. Javala lost part of his left ring finger in a motorcycle accident in 2008 and his doctor, hearing what Javala did for a living, helped him fit a USB "finger drive," according to Javalas web site www.protoblogr.net.
The memory stick - fitted into the top of the finger prosthesis - has some software Javala wrote himself and some for the open-source operating system Linux designed by compatriot Linus Thorvalds.
