 A wrench isn't a nesscary part is it?
Last Night, we tested the robot and a large, (yes I said LARGE) wrench fell from somewhere on the robot....Along with bolts, nuts, and a very interestingly cut piece of Aluminum... - Will Bale [more] |

Re: Thanks Dean for the Insulin Pump ......
Kinda bittersweet when you look at it eh?
Pretty cool that you get to use the pump though. My uncle also uses the insulin pump, not sure if only Dean's version is the only one out there though. Stay healthy, Ed!

Re: Thanks Dean for the Insulin Pump ......
At DEKA, we say that "we make the best products no one wants to have to use" and that "we wish we didn't have a user base". Home dialysis, the iBot, the Arm, etc. are all really cool life-changing pieces of technology, but they can not truly replace nature. I like to see our job as making the best band-aid possible while we wait for Bio Engineering (and politics) to catch up.
Dean's previous company was the one that released the first portable insulin pump. Since then, many other companies have taken a crack at it. Your statement of "far better freedom in my daily routine." helps me remember why I work here. Thank You.
