[tri-med] Re: Touch-screen laptop computer

We have been trialing a Dynovox for Mitchell. They are pretty cool. The one
we have tried the Dynovox Vmax is pretty heavy, but it is small. There is a
smaller/lighter one that we are going to trial as well. We liked the
Dynovox. Mitchell is a little impulsive with it which is why we aren't going
to buy one quite yet. It is nice though. Let me know if you have specific
questions. We just used the picture/touch screen part of it. BUT, you can
connect it to the internet, have email...do all sorts of things with it.
