I got a msg from our state AG warning me about these, but it was 2 days 
after I had ordered this thing. Too little warning, too late, but I'm 
the curios type, and this device looks good so I would like to see how 
it compares with the antique finger prick model we've been using since 
Hector's great grandfather was a puppy.. New tech sometimes work pretty 
good while the FDA seems to try to protect old tech.
