Our son Dan, who has Angelman Syndrome, can't talk but communicates with signs, sounds and gestures, and with £6,000 of heavy tablet computer produced by PRC, called a Vantage. We think this is a scandal as it's not exactly state of the art.
The newest model looks like this (left). Dan's is older.
The good news is that there is now an application for the iPod touch that enables it to be used as a similar device. The cost, including software, iPod and case with speaker, is not much over £300. Guess what Dan is getting for Christmas!

Will be waiting to hear how you get on with proloquo2go! I am wondering if the iPod is a bit too small and fiddly. (AAC devices are ridiculously expensive)
