I just ordered a Noahlink wireless 2 programmer and would like to find the Genie 2 software to use on my new Oticon Intent 1 hearing aids. 

Also, I’d like to offer a few observations and a bit about my experience with the Intents during my first 10 days of use.  First, my horrible tinnitus seems to be lessened by nearly 75% over the levels I experienced with both my KS-10s and KS-8s. This is without using the tinnitus programs Oticon supplies.  Secondly, my speech understanding both in quiet and noisy environments is significantly improved and I rarely have confusion between many of the consonants sounds including my nemesis f, s, and t,c, etc. I find the double domes a bit annoying and still don’t eliminate all feedback so will order custom molds next visit.  Listening to music is ok but not ideal even with a special music program.  Overall, I like the sound and the ability to hear outdoor sounds far clearer than any of my previous hearing aids. 

Finally I am jealous of all of you getting your aids from the VA and after applying multiple times, I do not qualify based on the means test. Unfortunately my hearing losses while on active duty were not documented at the time of my discharge physical.  Although far more costly than my Costco hearing aids, I find they are well worth the additional cost.
