Sounds wonderful, David, but when are they going to give us a meter that is accurate? I do not need all of the bells and whistles. I just want to know if my 100 BG reading is 85, 100, or 115. I love new tech innovations but have no need to send "ballpark" readings to anyone including myself.

Technology is cool when everybody takes advantage of lt. For example I currently use the One Touch Ultra Smart Meter and computer program to keep record of my log entries as much as possible. But it becomes frustrating when my current doctor does not use the program. Only relies on the AC1 test. which is unfortunate. Only the Diabetes/Nurse and Clinic that I attended with in the Legacy Health System used the program to assist patients. It was a course in Diabetic Education they offered, that lasted several weeks of education, and follow up guidance. Which was very useful, but once over and back to normal Doctor follow ups even in the legacy system they did not have the time to monitor all the use full information. just some thoughts.!

This may be a little off the subject when it comes to Bluetooth Glucose meters, but I downloaded a really neat app for Android phones. It's called On Track. It allows me to use my phone as my log book. It's got some really neat things and will even generate a report that is exportable to your (or anyone else's email). It keeps a running average for day, week, and month of your Glucose and has an estimated A1C level too. Just thought I'd share this with you all.
