[Athen] Proloquo

[Doug Hayman]

thought I'd seen a web site that also had a keyguard type device to fit 
over the iPad when using that app so that you could rest your hand on it 
and more easily hit the target.

This would be something to consider with all of the Apple products as they are very sensitive.  With that being said, I believe users can opt for a wrist pad that would hold their hand up so that it doesn't activate other parts of the screen unintentionally. If access is not a problem, Proloquo2Go is becoming the new standard for Aug Comm on Apple products. We also have a list of free apps that are quickly becoming popular.
