I have to say that I agree (both to the welcome and the answer).  Delta 
powers seem to be very personal -- you can't use them through technological 
enhancements, with no exceptions that I can think of.  You can come up with 
a myriad of reasons for this that are setting related (you'd be making them 
up based on observations, b/c we haven't been told anything "official" in 
the books), but it also keeps the powers in line.  You aren't just picking 
up a piece of easily available hardware and overcoming your delta 
limitations just like that.

However, get a Gadgeteer into the works and that all goes out the 
window.  That's what they're for, after all.

And if you think this is all poppycock and think it is cool for your game, 
then by all means, go ahead and do it.  Whatever works for your game is the 
only rule you need to follow.
