I would hope their meter works better than their website, because it doesn't

Umm . . ., did you look at their cost analysis, Wader?

I'm thinking I'll stick with my N-395.

Your link works, I used the main site, they havn't mastered HTML yet.

It's a nice unit but I bet we couldn't get enought $$$ to get it. If they don't list a price theres a reason. I'll bet it's between $2,000 and $4,000.

I didn't look at the cost. I'm sure it is a bundle of $$$ but that doesn't make it less interesting... nice to be without the wires.

The report looks a lot like PROFOX analysis software.

IDS Oximetry Report

Also, it looks like they're only doing 4 second data points (all the events are a multiple of 00:04 seconds) which makes this a "trend" oximetry report. Good for assessing need for supplemental oxygen, not too good to track the desaturations that you see in OSA.
