Hmm, that sounds quite interesting, it's something I might actually use.

Pity they don't have a) a proper grasp of English and b) details of how it works.
What do you do after the injection, where does the needles protective cap go?
How does the B+ know how much each injection is?
What diaries does it integrate with ( I suspect it's their own only).?
What about Windows Smartphones?
Why would you want it? If you keep a record of your injections that you won't inject twice or miss one unless you have a bad memory as well and there are easy ways round these problems.
