Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Dave, You can use headphones with the ProdigyVoice and that way you won't disturb anyone.

Their shipment must have arrived on Friday as they had expected, and I suppose they sent it Priority Mail since it came all the way from Texas this quickly. I like the meter so far, although as I had stated initially, I still think the excess noise/music is unnecessary. And, while it can be turned down or off fairly easily, I am already grimacing about the first time my wife goes to help me check it during our Sunday morning church service and we have forgotten to turn off the sound. Dave Prodigy Voice vendors Hi, Well, I've been attempting to order a Prodigy Voice since Jan. 7 from the company talked about on the list, something like American Home Health, and after finally getting the order finished (supposedly), the meter was to have arrived last week. It's now Wednesday, so I call, and I'm informed that the meters have been on back order since Jan. 10! I've talked with them at least half-a-dozen times after the 10th because they kept having problems getting my forms, which turned out to be a problem with their fax machine, and not a word was ever mentioned about the meters being on back order. So, is there any other source where they can be purchased? I don't care if another company also has them on back order, but I'd like to be done with this American Home Health company. Many thanks.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 No problems, Tim just sent it out via U P S ground, and it got here in about a week. I sent the other back yesterday in a pre addressed, postage paid Jet Pack. regards, Claude Everett American by chance, Californian by choice.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I think what I'll end up doing is bringing a dummy plug to make sure it doesn't make any noise in case we forget to turn it off. My sighted wife can read the screen, which is preferable to using head phones.
