I'm an avowed Apple hater. Can't stand the company, don't think their products are anything special by and large, and while I do own a Mac and an iPad for development purposes, I never use them outside that purpose and never would. I'm simply not a fan.

But, I'm also diabetic, and that will all change the day they release this. I'll buy an iPhone and an Apple Watch day one. Most especially if, as I assume, it would be continuous monitoring (and assuming it's accurate, obviously).

Paradigm shift is exactly right.

If they can pull this off, it'll be a real game changer for a lot (and a growing number) of people. They will have earned my money, if not my adoration, for sure.

Yeah, damn right! I remember Paul's third letter to the Corinthians:

"And for whomever haveth electric heat, thou shalt turn thy thermostat down to 64. And lo, there will be much sheltering beneath blankets, loved ones bundled on couches... and though the Eagles may endure God's chilling winds, thou shalt be warned by the glow of big-screen TV's."

Or something like that.
