Yes, like what was linked above. The Medtronics 640 is one example. (I think that was what you were referring to as well?)
A good step in the right direction for me anyways. Hate having so many things attached to my body.

I like the idea of combining them. I wonder how well the sensor will work though since it'll be in such close proximity to the infusion set. With the current tech, I've always been told to keep them apart.

My biggest gripe though is the interface for most pumps. They completely suck. When rudeguy linked the t-slim few months back, I got excited with the fact that you can punch in numbers (instead of having to use up/down arrows). That to me is a huge thing!
 
Who knows. I don't recall being told anything of the sort. I probably wasn't paying attention anyways.
I am sure it will work fine or something like that would not be released...but I wouldn't know for sure.

That pump is rock solid. SOOOO easy to give boluses. None of the hardware issues like Animas had. lil rudeguy loves it and it for sure makes my job easier (he still has me put in boluses when he's too lazy. I don't mind).

I stopped paying attention to Amazon reviews years ago. If you read them, most of them are "I ordered this at 11 PM Tuesday and chose 2 days shipping and didn't get it until Friday. Still haven't used this product but Amazon sucks!"

Out of curiosity, since I do pay attention to Amazon ratings and reviews, I looked through all of the 1, 2, and 3 star reviews. Not a single one of them was anything like you described. Many of those poor reviews seemed to be about rather legitimate concerns (lack of compatibility with a lot of types of cell phones, poor battery life).
<--- not diabetic; but was curious about Rudeguy's perception of the Amazon reviews. At least with Amazon, you know the person bought the thing.
