I have to admit, it is difficult to follow because there is so much information. That said, I enjoy reading about the new technology that may be functional in health care what people have to say about it. I am also waiting for continuing information about health care reform. Good luck on your assignment. I am doing this entry as an assignment as well. I have to admit, it is difficult to follow because there is so much information.

Interesting story. Not only a new care paradigm but the great news in its affordability. All too often new technology is great and helpful but does not benefit all due to financial contraints. We need more devices and oppotunities like this Shahid

I'm hoping that researchers everywhere start looking beyond their special purpose devices and see how these kinds of general purpose inexpensive devices can be applied to the clinical world. I will try to continue to highlight these things as I see them. If anyone else knows of similar solutions please share :-). I agree wholeheartedly, Bill. Thank you for the comment.
