Twilight NP and nostril (nare) shape

I'm intrigued with the Twilight NP but I read somewhere that it works better with rounded nostrils. Does it work at all with slotted ones? Anyone with experience care to share? Thanks!

so, the soyala is good for side sleepers, but what about back sleepers? or folks like me that alternate from side to back frequently throughout the night?

yup there's a microsoft sql server 2005 and about 4 others that are related to the 2005 entry. no "microsoft sql server" by itself though. maybe it was added by encore pro...but the date stamp was last year. weird.

I've looked around in there. it appears the MSSQL.1 was added by the encore pro app. i've poked around in the 80 and 90 directories and can't tell what apps they're associated with. As you can imagine, I'm reluctant to uninstall them, this being the work 'puter and all. What if I partioned the disk ...

there is an Micrososft SQL Server directory with three subs: 80, 90, and MSSQL.1.

i tried pointing the installation to Microsoft SQL Server2 thinking that might help, but didn't seem to make a difference.

What happens to retired CPAP Machines?

Given the need for a prescription from a doc to buy one, I'm guessing there's not much of a resale market for machines? My partner started with a F&P and I'd like to upgrade her to a REMStar so we can share Encore Pro and both analyze our data to improve sleep experience. (I'm getting the Mseries Au...

Sleep Stages outside of formal sleep studies

Is there any way to identify which sleep stages you reach and how long you stay there outside a formal sleep study? Does Encore Pro record this? thanks.
