Pat,

What do you think of it?  Have you used or seen it yourself?

I ask as I have a friend who will be interested to know.

Lovings coming your way, as always:

New Tiny Talking Meter
Prodigy Meter
The Prodigy is a talking blood glucose meter from
Taiwan. Truly tiny, it measures
3-7/8 inches x 1-3/4 inches x 15/16 inch. It
talks: the meter incorporates speech
synthesis. The Prodigy's screen is clear and
bright, and screen numbers are 5/8 inch
tall.
The meter uses "state-of-the-art" capillary
action, touchable test strips (no "hanging
drop of blood") and tests across a 20 mg/dl to
600 mg/dl range, with a tiny (0.6
µl) blood sample.
The Prodigy meter is available, right now. The
meter costs $30.99, and a box of 50
strips costs $18.95. Order five boxes of strips,
and the meter is free. Medicare
beneficiaries who have met their deductible can
get the meter and supplies for free.
It has already been FDA-approved. The supplier
is: Diagnostic Devices, Inc., PO Box
227397, Miami, FL. You should contact the
retailer: Diabetic Support Program, 3381
Fairlane Farms Road, Wellington, FL 33414;
