[QUOTE="chocoholic, post: 52670, member: 2964"] For me, (though I'm 51, so not in your target age group) what I'd like most, is a meter that fits SNUGLY into it's case. My present one slips out of the clear plastic wallet too easily and IMHO is badly designed. It's an efficient meter but I've lost count of the times when I've nearly dropped the meter. When readings drop and hands start to shake (especialy if you are out walking) testing leaves you all fingers and thumbs,trying to juggle getting the test strip in place, cotton wool at the ready, empty foil bit to contend with etc. etc. So a sturdier holder is what I'd place high on the list. I couldn't care less about it being in fancy, coloured casing or having sparkly designer bits or whatever but then I'm not in the age group you asked about. Perhaps youngsters would have a different opinion. Perhaps a luminous outer casing might be an idea though........if I had a pound for every time I've lost the black case in the bottom of my handbag, especialy at night, I'd be a rich woman. [/QUOTE]
