Medtronic sues Insulet

Medtronic sues Insulet over 2 patents for remote controlling a pump

Complaint link

Patent 878 link

Patent 276 link

I'm upset, because those patents look generic at all and because Medtronic never never built a true remote for its pumps.

I hope Insulet survives this, and at least sells its pods here in Europe (till Medtronic sues here too)

Please discuss this: it's not a pity only for omnipod fans, it's a problem for any pump maker which would do a remote control (and has not the money for legal issues like Animas J&J has)
