Default OT How expensive would it be to add wireless technology to a glucose meter?

Many homes now have wireless networks. It seems like a pretty simple
thing to add a USB port for a wireless USB adapter.

Add the technology to blood pressure meters and bathroom scales. One
adapter, many devices.

With a USB port you could even feed information into the device with a
flash drive.


One touch HAS a bit of software into which you can download the data from
the device. Once there, you can transmit it to wherever you like.

Check the One-Touch web site.

I think they maybe took it down for liability reasons; If so, shoot me an
email and I'll forward a copy.
