Not strictly news but a nice piece about a new gadget but don't expect too much... it links to a review by an actual T2 person.

Telcare BGM is a 3G-enabled blood glucose meter that wirelessly transmits glucose values using T-Mobile USA’s wireless network to an online clinical server.Coincidentally, Mossberg told attendees at the TEDMED conference in November 2010 that his traditional glucometer was a “piece of ****” because — among other things — it didn’t connect to smartphones, other mobile devices, or the Internet.

Up to date...
According to a report in The New York Times this week, two as yet unnamed insurance companies have already agreed to pay more than $100 a month for patients who use WellDoc’s DiabetesManager. The reimbursement will not begin until some time early next year, according to the newspaper. The report cites an interview with WellDoc president Anand Iyer as its source.
