The meetings have been pretty good so far, Mike. Not quite so advanced and informative as we are reading about the Manhattan AWAKE meetings but ...

Probably the best part of our meetings so far have been the access to the manufacturer Reps and being able to question them on their various masks and PAPs. Altho they had a really good and interesting cardiologist, and for those w/diabetis I think the diabetis nutritionist who spoke was probably interesting. The meeting they invited all the local DME providers to bring samples of the equipment they provide and just let us roam and talk to the various DME reps was great. It was especially interesting for me to note which DME reps brought entry level and "off-brand" PAPs and which brought fully data capable Resmeds or Respironics.

We've only had one Fisher & Paykel Rep one time that I attended, but he was friendly and informative and brought a fully data capable APAP for display and to provide information about.

I wish DeVilbiss and Sandman would have their Reps drop in on occasion too.
