Tony, they have models today with all kinds of new features. I wouldn't rule one out until you've seen them for yourself. Mine is probably 7 or more years old now that I think of it but it works.

I've used these for years. At times I need something a bit more idiot proof and that does logging automatically. Hoping what I'm looking for isn't just hype.

Taking one's blood pressure is automated. Simply stick either arm in the sleeve, pull it taught, take the remaining part and wrap it around your arm. Then, press a button. The machine will inflate, take your blood pressure and then deflate. Then it will report your blood pressure and usually pulse. Some of the better ones also keep a log of your blood pressure and even time/date stamp the results so you can show it to your care giver. These machines can run from 10 dollars or so on up. In general, the more the machine can do, the more you'll pay for it. You can Google "Talking Blood Pressure Machine" or visit your local drug store. The chain stores very often carry them. You may a bit more because they are retail but the advantage is, you can take it home with you right there and then. Any kind of device that would offer a read out via a smart phone probably would be much more expensive than a stand alone talking blood pressure machine. Many older Americans and the list keeps growing just want something that will measure their blood pressure and report the with out costing them an arm and a leg and is easy to use. In my case, my cardiologist wants me to bring in my BP machine once every year so he can see how close mine is to what he uses. The talking blood pressure machines today are very accurate so have no fear over buying a 10 or 15 dollar machine. You'll also need several double A. batteries. Average is 4 of them. They generally last 6 months or longer so you won't go broke buying batteries. The power supply is generally sold as an add on item but then there goes the portable part. People with health issues often take their BP Machine with them when traveling etc. HTH Regards, Alan Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to All!

I'm interested in ease of use and how it works with voice over. Thanks Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
