1. An analyte measurement meter that measures and stores results from analyte measurements, the meter comprising:
- a housing;
a plurality of user interface buttons proximate the housing;
a display proximate the housing;
a microprocessor connected to the user interface buttons and the display, the microprocessor configured to;
(a) allow a user to select a basic mode or advanced mode of the meter with the user interface;
(b) upon selection of the advanced mode with the user interface, query the user with a series of inquiries to select any one of at least three features not available in the basic mode;
(c) upon selection of any one of the at least three features with the user interface, activation of user-selected feature for the meter;
or (d) revert the meter to at least one other feature not available in the basic mode.

6. A method for using an analyte meter having a microprocessor coupled to a user interface and display, the method comprising the steps of:
-
querying a user to select between a basic mode and an advanced mode for the meter; selecting the advanced mode; querying the user for selection for additional features with a series of questions relating to the user'"'"'s past results, meal patterns, and need for graphical insights; selecting one of the additional features otherwise activating another set of features distinct from the additional features when none of the additional features has been selected; and annunciating a summary of features available in the advanced mode. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
