Betreff: Re: [iPad] new iPad this fall?
My own thoughts:
I'm on an insulin pump. This helps me manage type 1 diabetes. I see most
every year the 'next best pump' to come out, and 9 out of 10 times it
doesn't happen. Between FDA being very, very slow and money, Pharma
monopolies or whatever, there's only ONE 'new pump' shipping in august. It
still does the same as others, but the display is brighter, has a touch
screen and looks like something Apple designed. I would love to try the
t-Slim if I can get my insurance to play along.
In basic reality, these new pumps are simply the same tech in a shiny new
package.
All will help you in managing diabetes if you use them responsibly.
I started on these devices back in 1994-5. Had I just kept waiting for the
'latest & greatest', I would STILL be on 6-8 shots of insulin a day.
Yes, there is a difference in a pump and an iPad, one being a medical
device, the other being a useful touch-screen computer, but we need to step
back from rumors/news of the next best thing. Enjoy what works for you now
and later if the next tech is something you can't live without, sell yours
and get a new gizmo. :-)
