Unlike the majority of the posters, the person whose name is Payam777777 is the uncle of a small child (3 years old, the last I heard). So he would be the King of posts and websites.

Thanks Payam, you are the "King" of website links!

Are they still tweaking the Navigator?

I know it is waiting on approval from the FDA. That the hold-up seems to be the 5-day wear-ability. I have seen the blogs and info about being a part of the trial study. Are they able to change/adjust things while up for FDA approval? Or is the tweaking for the next generation and this is just part of the FDA approval process?

Just curious when the darn thing might be available if they are still doing trials for approval status? What exactly is going on?

Thank you as always for your insight and speculation.
