Oh man that would be awesome. After stumbling upon the entire concept of the electronic cigarette, I started coming up with a million ways it could be incorporated into some kind of awesome scifi novel:
-digital cigarette as a part of your "personal area network" - communicates with a wearable computer and displays your nicotine levels and number of "cigarettes smoked" in a display in your glasses, maybe switches automatically to non-nic liquid (stored in a reservoir in the device) when you've had too much, etc.
-vending machines selling long-term refills where you insert your own e-cig and it pressure-injects the liquid into your cig, maybe lasting a month or so...
repeat ad futurism.

oh shizzle, you just gave apple the model for the next gen electronic cigarette...the i-cig.
haha that's what my boss called it when I told him I ordered one. He likes to make fun of my love of gadgetry.
I stand corrected with regards to the 'digi' smokes, then. Loose as it is 
Lol, regarding the icig. If it's anything like the iphone, we'd need to carry around 20 batteries with us.

I like the term "fogging". Saying it reminds me of another f-word I love to use and hmm, I think it's a verb as well - it's hard to tell since I find so many colorful and expressive ways to use it. No one would know whether I were a cursing drunk or a vaporizing fiend. Or, in a former life, perhaps both.
Another slang term I've started using:
Backfire: When you're taking a drag off an e-cig and fluid gets in your mouth. Unpleasant.

I've been calling that "backwash."
If it's too much, it sometimes gives me the hiccups.
Hm, I was working on that as a backdrop, but then diverted to a far-future novel for nanowrimo (involving a toxic waste cult). Another time perhaps
And no, nicotine isn't the only thing that's vaped in that future (but neither is it anything as crude as 'whacky baccy').
Well you could be, but vaping at the same time might be considered impolite.
And I'll be willing to bet that this chip has more processing power than the computer used to land man on the moon. 8-o
(I called it "misting" in my original video, because of the mist created. D'oh!)
- When I get juice in my mouth - My E-cig crashed.
- When I need to change out carts - Time to reboot.
- When I need to change out the battery - Need to upgrade.
I call mine the Star Trek Cigarette because many of the older people I've shown it to are amazed in that "Huh... technology..." kind of way. So, with that in mind, I was dripping some 36mg juice the other day while on break and a co-worker asked me what I was doing. I just smiled and said, "Setting phasers to stun."
Yeah, I'm just a geek like that.
