“Imagine five years from today, when you upgrade your favorite smartphone, there is a radio button option labeled “immortal phone upgrade — $500,” White hypothesized to The Debrief. “You might take advantage of that.”

Except you will have to upgrade the phone in a couple years on the "immortal phone upgrade' battery will not fit in the next model.

reminds me of Garret Moddel's work, see www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddi87KVwJYM, and he's filed a patent.

We will look back at this moment as the start of a new era. I also suspect that this technology has already been successfully tested before in government labs.
