For interbrain communication, we are still at the point of not knowing what to plug where. Once we figure out what constitutes the "bits" of thought, then we can worry about the IO port. Since the head is a messy place to do an implant, maybe we can more easily tap a nerve bundle in the neck or an extremity. Initial efforts may require the dedication of that nerve bundle to the new IO function. You may be faced with choosing which extremity function you wish to give up to accommodate the new IO. Hmm, sounds like DOS! In any case, the first really big money will come from virtual entertainment. Personally, I hope to be able to have my money with the guys who write the first firewall code.
