* much cheaper
* not tied to a pump 24/7/365
* less chance of DKA [so long as you remember to give your long acting basal]
* possibly don't need to test quite so often
* don't need a degree in computer science to program it
* supplies are more likely to be available Worldwide
* no annoying beeps or alarms going off at odd moments
* as a man I would not need to shave patches of my belly every three days
