[Diabetes-Talk] Anyone Used the MiniMed Package Yet, All Controlled by Your Phone?

[Patricia Maddix]

Rick,
I will be very anxious to hear your report once you are using it. We thought that the moby was going to be completely voiceover compatible, but at the beginning, there were two major stumbling blocks that would not work with voiceover that had to be solved before we could deem it totally accessible.
Patricia.

Same infusion/reservoir as the 770/780 versions and no controls on the much smaller pump. All done by your I-phone or Android. Only problem now is the Distributors of this system know nothing about this, as I learned today. I'll let you know more as I get this all set up sometime soon.

If you know what I'm talking about, have you tried it yet? It sounded like it was a package or set, and I remember thinking they meant the pump and the sensors, and all done by your phone. We were looking for something else and didn't make the time to look further at that time. But I wanted to mention it here to help give hope to those who don't yet know, and ask if anyone here might already be involved in this scenario? It sounded great, just from that headline I read. But it might just be hopeful marketing, I know. Anyone know more?
