Best app for DM Ive found in a decade!

Im a recent migrant from the Palm platform to the iPhone, and Ive tried many diabetes applications on the Palm, and have inspected the iTunes advertisement pages for the ones for iPhone. This app is by far the most useful of any app Ive found. If you are newly diabetic, or are newly on insulin, and your physician instructs you on your insulin dosing, then you might want to purchase an app which allows you to record your dietary intake, which this app doesnt. However, if you are at the point in your disease where you dont need to record your diet, and you titrate your insulin dose yourself and are tweeking the dosing, then this is hands down the best app Ive found for either Palm or iPhone. Its superiority rests in the graphics display. It both shows a line graph of your glucose level (values being on the y axis on the left side of the window), and has a histogram of insulin dose taken for each glucose reading (values being on the y axis on the right side of the window), with the different insulin types being displayed in different colors. This is not only a gorgeous looking graph, it is the most useful one Ive found, and Ive been looking for this exact type of display for years in a diabetes management application. The reason this feature is important is that it allows you to visually see in graphic format the changes in glucose control which your changes in insulin dosing make (and for me it proved that, contrary to my MDs claim, Lantus insulin puts my glucose trough at 16-18 hours later, not 24 hours later). In addition, I wrote to the author, only a few weeks ago, that Id like to see the different insulin types in different colors on the histogram (in the earlier version they were all the same color), and the update I received last night had that feature. I love it!
