"I was perfectly satisfied to write science fiction knowing that it would pay very little, that it would be seen by only a very few people."
- Isaac Asimov

Memory Biochip  
  An implanted device that permits the user to 'play back' selected memories.  

"Lieutenant Illyan also has an eidetic memory biochip. You may think of him as a recording device with legs, which the Emperor may play back at will."
Technovelgy from Shards of Honor, by Lois McMaster Bujold.
Published by Baen Books in 1986
