You can get much of the same "sixth sense" by wearing a magnetic ring instead of an implant... No worries of rejection or infection, and you get to loan the "feeling" out when you talk about it.

The nerves are far more sensitive in your fingertips and the transmission of vibration is far more effective when the magnet is trapped between layers of skin vs sitting loosely at the base of a finger. I expect you could get a similar sensitivity from gluing a small rare earth magnet to your fingertip.
