Dual Frequency RFID Microchips?

So this will be a really short start to this thread, but what is keeping us from making a dual frequency implant that integrates both 125kHz and 13.56MHz into the same tag? I know it would require separate chips and antennas, but just how large would the resulting implant have to be?

  1. Easier to implant two independent chips, but you could. What's the application?
  2. Application would just be to increase functionality of the single chip. I know I for one would rather have a single dual frequency chip in my hand than two. It would just serve to simplify and streamline things.

    Just the general idea of less doing more.
  3. I get it but I don't see why still, To seal the tag would require several failed attempts be fore that even could be done with out melting what's inside it, then there's getting it in. I assume that it would be implanted with a scalpel and stichs as apposed to a injection, no? Sincerely, John Doe
  4. I would actually have preferred a two in one. I personally would have it because I don't overly want to have one in my off hand since it's my off hand. I also know I'd be trying multiple spots thinking maybe it's this one.
