@johnbishop....this is excellent news. I wonder if the foam lessens the amount of markings left on my face by the mask. On occasion, I look like I have fallen across a storm drain with all the markings on my face at the end of a restful night of sleep.

@bernese53 -- I used the silicon sample AirFit F20 mask last night and my AHI was 5.3 for 8:13 hours which I thought was good to start with it. I already had a nose with a sore spot on top close to the eyes. I put moisturizer on it yesterday and last night before putting on the mask. When I woke up my nose hurt but it didn't rub the skin open again. I'm not sure how it would have been had my nose been OK before I put the mask on.

Tonight I'll crack open the new memory foam mask and give it a try to see how gentle it is on the nose and give an update tomorrow.
