    A lot of blame needs to be doled out. Who owns this mess? Just more evidence that we can't manage the commercial aspects of bringing a new product to market.

    We're 46 weeks out from the FDA approval and it's evidently going to be quite some time before we're able to get sensors to new patients. "Late Winter / Early Spring" sounds an awful like the Spring promise that was made last year. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence. March/April? I personally wouldn't bet on it. We will ultimately have patients waiting 2 years to get on this product.

    So much for our two-year head start. We can only guess why, but it's obvious that we never properly invested in the production side of the business to make sure we could actually make the product.

    The people in charge of this HAD ONE JOB. A crying shame that we couldn't be on top of this.

    100% agree. Omnipod will have their closed loop hybrid to market before we get this mess straightened out with 670g. Terrible.

    The leaders at the top should lose their jobs over this. No excuses.

    So, this is what the best team in med tech looks like? God, I'd hate to see the worst team in med tech.

    Where is the leadership? Embarrasing. Sad.

    Need new leadership and direction.

    Not a chance in hell that would happen!
    Omnipod is going to be working with that same brick until mid 2018.

    What is amazing, is that after all this BS. Once again, first with the Reble, then 530 and now 730 series. people ""FLOCK"" to the SAME High pressured sales people and B.S. of this Company!-!-!

    When do ""WE"" Say Enough!-!
    When do We as Consumers, Say S.T.O.P!!!
    If the Consumer is Dumb enough to continue in this treatment. Not shift/go elsewhere, then

    More power to them....

    You cant fix S T U P I D
