Hello all,

I profess suprise and confusion on BJCT's announced glucose monitoring market direction. Two years ago I asked if the company's injectors could be used for the insulin market and I was told they lacked sufficient capactiy. Then DeWeese joined the board. He brings a lot of experience in this market segment through his background at Cygnus.

The purchased technologhy from Elan is also significant.

Yet my perception of the field is that it is one of the more hyped and competitive markets in the medical delivery field (not that BJCT is suffering from this affliction). This is due to the great opportunities that await any company that can make glucose monitoring and insulin delivery easier and less painful.

There is a Minnesota company I've been following for several years that appears to be making progress but I have no idea how their technology platform compares with ours;

biz.yahoo.com

If I get some time over the holidays I will make an effort to collate and post a summary of these companys. I'd be greatful for any imput on this technology, of which I know nothing.

Happy Holidays, art
