Ordering software, need help please

Post by Guest » Thu Oct 20, 2005 8:14 am

Will be ordering an Auto probably today. Decided to go with the Remstar since I already am familiar with their Cpap (had the version that recorded only compliance) and I have the HH.

Need to know EXACTLY what to get in the way of software, reader, etc to keep up with data, and need to know WHERE to get these for the LEAST money (no illegal/unethical means please ). Please keep in mind I am not very techy--but I can learn. At least I think I can.

Any advice is welcome.

Thanks,
Esther

Here is a link to the software from cpap.com.

I got the card reader from 2factors since it is almost $70 cheaper than getting the software/card reader bundle. http://www.2factors.com is the site and the card reader you are looking for is the DT3500 (the $24 one).

Software: $99 + $7 s/h (to iowa anyway)
Card Reader: $24 + $6.80 s/h to the USA
Total: $136.80 to my door.

Thanks cybergoon. Sounds like a plan. That beats $199.

I can't remember exactly, but I want to say it comes from Japan. Definitely overseas. Mine also took around a week, maybe a little less.

Mine took 7 days to get to me. It came from Hong Kong. It was registered mail, signature required, so I had to go to the post office to get it.

Oh, I hate registered mail that requires a signature. Especially for an inexpensive item. Diamonds? maybe. A computer doohickey? no way.
Who has the time?

I agree with you on that. UPS and FedEx leave stuff with the office at my townhouse, but the USPS makes me go pick it up.

Also, it was insured. Most of the time when I buy online I have to pay extra for that, but they did it no charge.
