I'm glad they are going to step up production. I am pretty sure we're going to try this first for our son before we go the traditional route. I know they are currently not prescribing to children yet, but did they happen to mention if this Q1 2007 prediction included children? The last I heard was that they were conducting a user evaluation for kids that should take at least 6 months. I hate to keep bothering the reps because I know they are ovewhelmed. I feel like the kid in the backseat reoeating "Are we there yet?" Yay! I’m glad they are going to step up production.

But the OmniPod does away with the tubing, so the controller unit is not attached to your body. That appeals to me! Hi Nick,

Would you prefer to wear the Omnipod or would you prefer to wear an insulin pump with a cannula stuck into your skin?

Sounds like your trip has been a blast so far, Amy!! I may just ask again about the OmniPod at my next endo appt as I am on the East Coast. Wow, no wonder indeed!
