      Hi Enyaa
      Why would you want one? your brain is much more intelligent than an iPhone!

      … hmm I suppose so…

      You’d just have to remove a slice of brain and I expect you could slide slide an iPhone in the gap left without any problem.

      Not sure what effect you’re after though… (beyond the likely severe loss of brain function)

      Like the others said, I’m not sure you would want an iphone in your brain! However, there are fields of sciences such neuroengineering and brain-computer interfacing that are investigating linking the brain with technology, so maybe they will develop an implant that enables you to control an iPhone or similar device with your brain. And you’ve got technology like google glass which is now voice activated, but who knows in the future?
