I can second that. Barukh Hashem, I have had only good experiences with
Deltec.
[Did you have you have to request [or...pay] specifically for the Meter
attachment or did they send it to you automatically??]
A smaller reservoir may not be such a bad thing, unless you normally take
alot of insulin during a regular day. [Do most people use more than 300
units every 2-3 days??] The insulin, I am told, chemically reacts
(negatively) with the plastic of the infusion set so that you shouldnt keep
it in there for more than 2-3 days. That, and the fact that the skin
apparently tends to "close up" after a couple days, would deem it wise to
change the site and reservoir every 2-3 days. So I have been taught.
