  2. Ive been waiting a year for this to come over from europe – the strips are very expensive and insurance doesnt cover them but its a start in the right direction the product and software are top notch

  3. Interesting to note that iBGStar has a program to buy strips for no more than $20 – which makes the concept affordable for most people.

    It does mean keeping track of the docking dongle, but I suppose that’s no different than trekking around with a glucose meter.
