Hi Linda!

Good to see you posting here again. I checked your posting history and saw it's been a few years.

Take care and don't be so reclusive. OK?

Thanks! My peeps were getting lonely, so I thought I'd bring them out to play.

Still waiting that call from the sleep Dr....

I have been really busy with work and had a 3 hour interview, this afternoon. Gee Whilikers! Hopefully I will hear something before the weekend.

THANKS! All of you for the information.

I think I would be calling everyday to politely ask my question. What was the question again?

50 percent coverage... You may want to just pay out of pocket if you can afford it. Our hosts and second wind are good places to check.

Some machines have even more, and it can be awesome, even if you are not a geek.
Be careful. The ResMed AirSense 10 "CPAP" model does that, but only daily averages. Curse you, ResMed!!!. You want at least the AirSense 10 Elite to get true full data capability.

Tell me more, archangle. I am supposed to pick up an AirSense 10 on Monday, but it is supposed to be an APAP. How can I make sure I don't end up with something that only does daily averages?
