Alarm based on sleep cycles would be awesome...makes a big difference for me what phase of sleep I wake up in. Kind of surprised no one has implemented that yet given the popularity of bioclocks and iPhone apps that claim to do that.

That's what Zeo did, and why I love it.

But it would be nice for something like that to be added to xPAP machines -- especially ASVs so they wouldn't freak out when you wake up and your breathing becomes less regular!

PR has an add-on now, primarily for their SleepMapper, but once I settle in (and send the compliance modem back), you can bet I'm going to be checking to see if I can get full data via Bluetooth!
