There was a mention of something like this in the last book of the
first Trilogy of Shadowrun books. Never Deal with a Dragon, Find Your
Own Truth, ... The ones with Sam Verner. I think it was the last book
in the beginning around page 10.

FLASHBACK with Music.......

Sam and some muscle were in Australia...
They were searching for some strange magical duhicky.
And well the street sam, some Indian dude who was nothing like Ghost,
gets mad at Sam and pulls a gun on him while he, the sam, is looking
somewhere else. They make mention that the sam was as deadly with his
cybernetic enhancements without even being able to see his target with
his meat eyes. I took this to mean that he could sight his target much
like a camera with his smartlink.

Back to present reality.....

Well that is how I remember it. It has been at least since the book
was released. And I don't have a copy of the book with me. I usually
don't take the books seriously for rules, though. But this might spark
some more briliant insights.
