When I first became a diabetic in 1988, I was given a meter called 
the Gluco check. If you managed to time and wipe at the right 
moments, in the end it would give out the result in beeps. So if you 
had a reading of one hundred fifteen, you'd hear beeps to represent 
each digit. So you'd hear beep, beep, beep beep beep beep beep. At 
least you knew what it was. But boy what a pain in the butt it was to use!
And it was tough enough to survive my day of extreme frustration when 
I threw the meter across the room. <grin.>
