Please take this in the spirit it is intended. The harsh reality is that machines are not going to do it for you. Most important is motivation and a willingness to do what it takes to improve control. The problem with getting new toys is that they are a distraction. It enables you to put off doing what really needs to be done. IMO, things you should do before you get any new technology include testing/tweaking your basals, testing regularly, improving food choices, and refining your insulin:carb ratio. You need to do all this anyway. And it doesn't require fancy technology.
