I found out this week that I am able to get a brand new insulin pump as the warranty has expired on my old one (IR1000 by Animas). I like the one I have, but I also want to try out the new one (IR 1250). It seems to have soooooooo many more features that the older one doesn't have. I was wondering if anyone is using this one, and if so do you like it? Is there anything you don't like about it? What do you like about it? Is it smaller than other pumps (if you have had others to compare it to; it says it is smaller than the one I have now)? I am excited to get this one and want to know what others think of it before I get it.

I don't have the Animas, but i have seen them. Assuming I saw the model you want, it looks pretty cool to me. food lists, bolus calculator. I recently finished a Diabetes camp, and the animas kids seemed very happy with theirs. I have the minimed paradigm 515. I think if I didn't start with minimed, animas would be my second choice.

Very good question. I too am interested in the answer results. However, have you contacted the company for a "trial" period. They should be willing to provide one device to checkout the new features, especially when you have one already. It's just a suggestion, seeing that they would benefit from the purchase and the news passed between diabetics.
