lol...It does look like a 58!

It's cool that they're coming out with a new meter that doesn't have to be coded, but does anyone else feel frustrated that they're bringing out new meters...and still there's NO Navigator yet?

It looks to be the size of the flash. The buttons look different but same layout.

The only thing the PR indicates is "automatic calibration."

This makes me wonder if it requires a new kind of test strip, too. Unless the test strips have had "automatic calibration" already built in to each strip?

If it accepts current Freestyle strips, it will make me wonder, "How do they they do it!"
