    "We really are getting closer to completion of the new re-design. I know your're anxious to keep
    your subscribers informed, but we need to wait just a little longer to see how the device performs."

    Further on this, our SugarTrac Non-Invasive Glucose Monitor will be delayed because the IT designers
    will have to re-write the voice recognition program.

    I will continue to work on your behalf in obtaining information regarding the progress of the
    SugarTrac monitor.

    Thank you,

    Can anyone explain why a glucose monitor needs any sort of voice recognition? Sounds to me more
    like "our product didn't pass the clinical trials, so we're going to come up with some vague
    excuse for the delay while we try to fix the problems."

    I second the motion.

  4. Agreed.

    This could have a tiny 3/4 inch LED display, and it would sell like hotcakes if it really reads the
    glucose well without a fingerstick.

    If these guys are making voice recognition their top priority, we really have to question their
    common sense, and whether this device is just vaporware.

  5. Well, they may be employing delaying tactics, but there are people who would like a meter with non-
    visual controls & feedback. bj

    Sure; but there are lots of people who would like a non-intrusive meter *now*. If they had working
    meters available, they'd be selling those now, and then making double the money when they brought
    out voice-controlled meters a year later.
