Not yet. I won't know if I'm immortal until I don't die. I'm not
currently a pure energy being. I don't have specific plans to become
one. In fact, I don't currently know of a systems architecture for
such a form,so it's not on my development schedule. I haven't gotten
past the following plane yet:
    human
    human/computer collaboration
    augmentation to SI

These preliminary steps still involve matter.
