My new T:Slim is coming today!! I'm so excited!! Just wanted to thank everyone here who has helped me in making my decision. Thanks to you guys it was a pretty easy decision to make. Seems that having been pumping on a Minimed for the past 15 years, I think it will be an easy learn. I'm sure I will be back with questions for you!
Let me offer you best wishes with your decision to switch brands of pumps -- it's a HUGE step, with the opportunity for sleepless nights while you learn the in's and out's of the new brand. It's a step I did in the past (from Cozmo to MM) and that I'm thinking of again (from MM to TSlim).
Be sure to keep us posted on what you find, both good and not-so-good, about your new pump!

Since you were with MM so long, I definitely recommend the training. Tandem’s team is great all the way around. Congrats!
One month today and I still love my t:slim!
I'm a long time Minimed user and have been following this thread. My thanks also to those who responded since the information was useful to me also. My new T:Slim will arrive Friday and I intend to take JenJen777's advise and schedule training.
Just scheduled my training for Friday and I CANNOT WAIT!! I wanted to just hook it up myself but the box warns me DO NOT USE WITH INSULIN UNTIL YOU HAVE TRAINING!! So I'm not. I totally get it. It isn't a Minimed and I want to learn it all correctly and not be confused. Still cannot get over how teeny tiny this little thing is!!
My daughter is starting on her's Friday also. She is excited also. She is now using Omnipod and happy to try something new and tiny. She formerly used Dtron, Minimed and Cozmo.
I downloaded the t:connect software onto my computer at home last night, check! Later, I was on my iPhone and noticed I had a "confirm your email" in my email inbox. So I tried to do that and there was an error, try later. So I tried logging in and it didn't accept my email and password that I had used. Now I tried it here at work and same thing. So, is the problem that I need to be confirming my email on the same computer that I downloaded the software on to?? I hope that is all the issue is here because I really would like to be able to get onto my tandemdiabetes account from work and my phone.
