You're giving up on the Diabuddies project? You're not serious, are you? Independent diabetics need independent software. Why on earth are all open software projects dealing with diabetes doomed to failure? We need instruments that transfer our ideas on an efficient diabetes control into handy tools. That's a goal not always congruent with the industry's intentions.
Glad it works for you.

Re: Diabuddies, the DB/webservice/interface isn't my project: that would be BrionH's brainchild. I don't know if he is giving up on it - I have not heard that he is.. I just wrote the library above for meter downloading, as well as the .Net ClickOnce app that is the actual client that downloads meter data from the serial port then uploads the results to diabuddies.com via the diabuddies webservice. It is possible I may continue work on the client, but it is tough as I only have a few actual devices to test on. For example, some users reported the inability to download their Freestyle Flash meters, but I never had a problem downloading my Flash. Also, discovering non-published protocols takes a LOT of time sniffing serial ports and drudging through assembly code and debuggers..
