[Diabetes-talk] solo meter

[Mike Freeman]

I have found the Solo and Prodigy to be equally accurate (or, if you will), inaccurate.  It's just that the Solo *tell*s* you that it's inaccurate -- most of the time -- whereas one must use a bit of smarts to figure that out with the Prodigy.

But the Solo mkaes mistakes, too.

Yes, there are issues with the software and accessing some of the memory functions of the Solo, but I would much rather have numbers that are giving closer results to what my glucose levels are than a meter that appears to always run on the low side.

The company needs to do more work to get the fixes put in place, but with that said, I am still happy with the accuracy of the results from the meter.  Accuracy for me is a top priority.
