[Diabetes-talk] Now a question about insulin pumps

MMM ... I'd bet one could read the screen with an Optacon.

For any of you who are following this thread, I also wanted to mention that
I was able to use my KNFB reader on my phone to read the Animas pump. It
isn't what you'd call a plan for complete functionality, but for the
occasional check out an alarm or read something, hey, it was possible. If I
had this pump, I'd probably have my hubby design a stand so that the pump
would always be placed in a way that made the KNFB reader happy. It's easy
for the pump to time out before getting it lined up.
And for any of you who have some vision, I think the Animas screen wins
hands down for brightness, size of characters and adjustability.
But the Medtronic has the biggest market share and it's the one most doctors
know, if that's something that is important to you.
Anyway, just a couple of musings from here.
