If it uses a Luer lock, I am all over it. Makes it much easier for me. (Are you listening @LarissaW ? 😀)

That pump looks very much like this one, which I posted about a while back (over 2 years ago). It is not yet available in the U.S. I think the FDA makes it much harder to break into the U.S. market. (Look at how we were the last to get Fiasp approved!!)

> Cellnovo These guys have been around for a while. Not available in the states yet, but more players in the tubeless market is a good thing. Their pump gives you the option of different infusion needle lengths, which is an advantage over the omnipod only giving you one size. And it is rechargeable, so the only thing you replace is the infusion, not the entire patch. But theirs is not as streamlined, it’s a bit more bulky. But good to maybe one day have a different option. Competition ultimate…

@kalle, since you are in Sweden, maybe one day you can help me get hooked up! 😉
