Just wondering if any one has used or knows anything about the Dario meters? The Canadian site is at http://mydario.ca/. I'm really tempted to try one. One it's got the geek factor going for it and I'm an uber geek. Second keeping everything in one small package looks really handy. Not sure about lancets. It doesn't look like there is any where to carry extras. Any way let me know what everyone thinks.
 
Don't change the lancet every time. Most of us don't bother. As another thread on the forum revealed, some of us (ahem) change them about once every 4 years.
 
I was a pre-launch user, and quite liked it, but to think you carry less isn't necessarily the case, because to use it, you need to plug it into your smart phone. So, whilst the device may be natty, if you forget your phone (and we've all done that from time to time), you can't test, unless anyone else knows how.
 
Thanks for the advice. But i think I would change the lancet at least once a day either way I'm curious about strange readings. Did you ever get a false reading or one that seemed out of wack? My pharmacist says some strips are better then others. She's not against it but suggests I find out more info first.
