That definitely makes sense. I didn't realize they never released the Aeon Labs one in the US. That is frustrating that would be my device of choice, I trust their brand, SO long as it is something that works with Almond devices.... I think they had pushed a few of them out in the US then they stopped, I assumed at the time it was a supply or production issue, now I think it must've been a cease and desist for the patent issue. In some cases patents do their jobs, in others they simply hinder innovation, I don't know which it was in this case.
