OUCH, DurianJoe
Your anecdote is actually a really good argument for the device over a vasectomy. And vasectomies aren't always the painless walk in the park they are touted as being. I know people who've had painful complications. The possibility of painful complications with this device may, of course, be comparable.
But golly! An electronic IUD for men? I hope it works without serious side effects. Men in committed relationships need more birth control choices. (Obviously, if you're not monogamously married or otherwise monogamously committed, a condom is still the best idea for both sexes, as they prevent more than pregancy.)
