Hey I have a new meter from Accu-chek.
Accu-Chek rang me up and asked me if i were to try the new Performa and I said yes I would and also asked if they had an update on the compass software too.
Today I have received the parcel and had a quick look at it and looked for the NDSS listing for the strips and I can get these so now it's the transfer of data to the computer that is the next step to try.
Has anyone has had any trouble with this meter?

I notice it has wireless connectivity. Will it communicate with my minimed 722 pump? Can my PC see it? It would be cool to see it on my home network.

Yeah that would be cool if that was the case and then again good ol'e microsoft has made infra red slow.
I have my mobile phone connected to my computer and that is very slow and to make reliable connection I have to slow it down anyway.

Thanks Andy, I guess that there is a 10% tolarance of acceptable resalts. After all, meters are just referance and they are not at all accurate.
