The IDEAL LIFE Gluco-Manager™ is a convenient, affordable and easy-to-use glucose meter. Used in conjunction with the IDEAL LIFE Pod™ - a wireless gateway - the Gluco-Manager can automatically and reliably communicate blood glucose readings without the need for a personal computer, cumbersome wires, or manual data entry. Some service providers offer Internet-based hosting of patient blood glucose data on a fee-for-service basis. But many diabetics told us they had problems with cable connections, software downloads, and compatibility, and found having to input data on a daily basis too time-consuming and inconvenient.
