Can you give me a hand?

After scanning today's news on the BBC website I stumbled across a rather interesting article about a man with a new hand. Yes, you heard it, a brand new hand. Mark Cahill, 51, was the first man in the UK to have a hand transplant. The operation lasted 8 hours and despite not currently having a sense of touch, 'he can now wiggle his fingers'.

Is this the start of something new? Will humans soon be bidding for body parts on E bay.  How much would Usain Bolt's legs go for? Just think, in a couple of years you'll be able to have the perfect tailor made body!
