    I like the look of that.

    Doubt it's a meter that they would be handing out for free at the hospital though, mostly down to half their customers not knowing what USB is probably. :(

    It's the only meter available that isn't free - it costs about E40.

    i got one of my diabetic nurse to try out when i was getting my blood taking,


    it was pretty good but i didnt like how bulky it was and the blood strips require more blood than what im used to.

    im curretly using the freestyle Lite
