Hi,

There was a "plea for help" in the mailserver of LXF151.

Check out "The Grace App" iPad type picture exchange application for non-verbal people.
From my reading of the letter, what the person is looking for is a picture exchange application, which can be used for autistic people and other speech impaired people.

I know nothing about these things other than that they exist.
A colleague has an autistic child.

Also check out http://www.android4autism.org/.

Hope you can pass this info on and hopefully others may be able to chime in.
Mods/Admins: This is a great cause, anyway you could make this a sticky or move it to a really active spot, just for a little while???

Thanks,
Derry[/b]

I hate replying to my own thread but...

The links below are specific for autism, but I feel that this can relate to issues with non-verbal communication also.


Android list:

Apple list:

In the meantime there is a huge imbalance in the android to apple app ratio...

Thanks for the ~90 odd views, could some one tell me if John xxx who wrote the original letter has been sent/seen this?

Thanks,
Derry
