Guest guest Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I am glad for you, Moses. My N5 processors arrived today, much sooner than the predicted 6-8 weeks, & I will see the audie in a few weeks. I hope others are getting theirs too.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Moses, that's wonderful news. Please be sure to keep us posted and share everything about your experience using the N5 vs the Freedom. You sure would be able to give good feedback since you have your CI for so long and had the 3G, if I'm correct? You will be able to compare 3G vs Freedom vs N5.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Dont look for UPS. You want to keep an eye out for FedEx. LOL And you will have to sign for it. If you can get the tracking info, or the delivery date, that will help. Quote of the nanosecond... One seventh of your life is spent on Monday. & Dreamer Doll ke7nwn E-mail- Gone.to.Dawgs@...

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Moses, Do you have traditional Medicare or a Medicare Advantage plan? I thought Medicare does not preapprove anything. Medicare did not pay for my Freedom either, and my 3G must be about 8 years old by now. Cochlear's reimbursement department told me that Medicare would not cover an upgrade for me until October regardless of who paid for my Freedom. In a message dated 4/15/2011 11:25:12 A.M.
