Actually, Pat, the Autocode was the second meter they put out. It was an

improvement over the original one in that it was, well, an autocode meter,

requiring no manual coding.

Solo V2 VS Prodigy Voice

I currently have a Prodigy voice meter, one of the first ones that came out

a few years ago. When I had my doctor's office call in a script for the

prodigy Voice strips through Walgreens, I was told that those strips were no

longer available. I called prodigy, and was told that all their meters now

use the same Prodigy " no code " strips and that the NDC code is different and

I was given the new code which I then gave to my doctor's office. They

called in the script again, and I received the strips.

Well, it turns out that these new strips don't work in my Prodigy voice. If

I insert one of the older strips that are now expired, the meter turns on

just fine. I called Prodigy again and I'm pretty upset at the way they are

handling this. So far they are not willing to replace my meter. According

to them the newer strips with the different NDC code should work fine but

they do not. Now I'm stuck with 100 strips and a meter that won't work with

them. I've just started using Insulen so I have to be able to get my sugar

readings.

To make a long story short, if I have to buy a new meter or have my

insurance pay for one, I just may switch to a different brand because of the

way Prodigy has chosen to handle this. I know some folks have chosen to go

with the Solo V2 so I'm wondering what the differences are between the 2

meters and if the Solo has any advantages over the Prodigy. Thanks much.

Hi , at least you have an extra meter to use if you need to. Good idea.
