I appreciate you sharing it @CatLady. You have a very good feed for tech info! You are always the first to post things like this. 😀

But I gotta say…

> To use it, you power on the device and just need to keep two fingers of each hand on the device when you want to check your blood glucose levels. The first prototype model generates results in 60 seconds, but Scanbo is working to reduce that to 30 seconds.

**Both** hands occupied for 60 seconds means there is _nothing_ else you can do while testing. I am not sure I can sit still for 60 seconds. 🤣
