I'm all for it. Now, if they can just get the device to diagnose sleep-disordered breathing. Too many go for too long before seeking diagnosis and treatment.

You've heard of the phrase you can lead a horse to water.... well doubtful any of those who go too long are going to have anything to do with this device. I know it won't be in our bedroom.
