I heard about this a year ago from a Tandem rep, and my understanding at the time was that the t:sport would be tubeless and compete with the omnipod in the tubeless pump space. That is something I would be interested in. But if it is just a smaller version of the tubed pump, it would mean nothing to me personally.

Any idea about that, Thomas?
