Perhaps there's a bug in the new firmware?

Hello Albert,
I have been using a Prodigy Voice meter since last August and have never
seen this issue with it. My unit has always registered the correct time 
and
ate when reviewing my readings.

Hi List

In an earlier post I reported to you that I had recently acquired a new
Prodigy Voice glucometer. Now, almost a week later, I would like to 
update
you on my findings and let you know what I have found, and ask you to 
see if
your meter does the same as mine.

After taking four readings a day, for four days in succession I decided 
to
cycle through, and write down my readings so that I could provide them 
to my
Doctor since I can't download the data to my computer. The 7-day average
function seemed to work correctly, but, when I read the individual 
readings
the meter showed the date and time of each reading correctly, but the 
"AM"
or "PM" was wrong. Let me give you an example. Lets say that I read four
times on February 22 2009 at five AM, nine AM, four PM, and eleven PM. 
Then
on February 23, 2009 I read at six AM, eleven-thirty AM, five-fifteen PM 
and
ten-thirty PM. When I cycle through those eight readings from the 
previous
two days I would get: for Feb. 22nd, five AM, nine AM, four AM, and 
eleven
AM. For Feb. 23 I would get six AM, eleven-thirty AM, five-fifteen AM 
and
ten-thirty AM.

I subsequently contacted the Prodigy people and explained my findings to
them and their representative thanked me for the information and 
indicated
that they would send me a new meter, asking me to return the meter in
question. I have since received the replacement meter and it seems to 
work
exactly as the first one, showing the "AM" "PM" incorrectly.

My question to the list is this: has anyone else noticed this possible 
bug
in the system, or have I simply gotten two bad meters?

Yours,
