Entrepreneur Installs RFID Chips in Both Hands

Carrying keys and remembering computer passwords are so last year, at least according to Amal Graafstra.
The Bellingham, Washington-based entrepreneur and his girlfriend, Jennifer Tomblin, have installed computer chips into their hands to give them access to their apartment and their computers -- without keys or passwords.
The devices implanted in Graafstra and his girlfriend are radio frequency identification (RFID) chips that are commonly used instead of barcodes to track merchandise in stores.
