Proloquo2Go is already available to use on Ipod touch and Iphone now it can be used on the new Ipad. Absolutely brilliant.
Proloquo2Go 1.3, now also for iPad April 02, 2010
Proloquo2Go, the augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) system that has taken the world by storm, is now available on the iPad. Proloquo2Go is latin for speak out loud and that’s exactly what it helps people do! It is pronounced “Pro” as in professional, “lo” as in low, and “quo” as in quotation. The “2Go” means mobile.
Proloquo2Go version 1.3 has been optimized for the iPad and will be a free update for existing users. Check out the photos here.
New Features and Enhancements include:
Universal App that will run optimally on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.
Added additional items sizes for iPad.
Support for both landscape and portrait view plus device rotation.
Redesigned toolbar for easier access to core functions.
Additional Appearance Settings for a fine-tuned user experience.
Rewritten core grid engine for higher performance.
Proloquo2Go has been helping individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), cerebral palsy, down syndrome, developmental disabilities, ALS, traumatic brain injury, aphasia, apraxia, and more.

To Samuel & The Team -
The new version with P2G for the iPad works awesome! (I did not need to import a previous set up, as another user reported on this list)
I have tested out a number of other "for iPad apps" over the past few days - by far, the P2G is the best engineered out of all of them! It is fast, responsive, and works wonderfully. I expected to find a bug here or there, and I am sure they will come up, but so far (and we have been driving P2G on iPad pretty hard) not a single bug. Well done!
I did notice that under the Education category in the App Store, P2G is the 2nd highest grossing (revenue) App. Well deserved!
My daughter (almost 4) was trying to use P2G on the iPhone, but because her pointing is not steady enough, she would get discouraged more quickly. With the iPad, she is not discouraged, and is using P2G (and other apps) as we had hoped last year when we purchased P2G for iPhone. (We also have a 32" LCD wall mounted TV with a touchscreen on the front of it, hooked up to a Mac Mini, put together just before the iPad was announced. Bigger screens have made all of the difference.)
My daughter is being evaluated by the school district for an AT (AAC) device. While the ones they have shown me are nice and fancy and some very specialized features, the $8K+ price tag may be fine for the school district, but not for us. A $700 solution (iPad + P2G) is what we can do ourselves.
Thank you to the P2G team. You guys are AWESOME!

The above review is like so many I have read posted on this product and to these two guys. Sensational, awesome, brilliant are commonly used words.
That about sums up how we all feel. Honestly Samuel & David, you have both done such a wonderful thing for us. For so many peoples lives to be changed. To be able to communicate exactly what they want or don't want. I have spent the last 15 years working with adults and children and my own daughter teaching sign language for use with children/adults with speech and/or developmental delay and it has been such a battle taking on the education system. Not that this will change things in that sense but it has now opened another option that can be put into use with the sign language. Using both together can only improve communicate needs and at long last there is the lower price range which will allow many others to be able to try out this option.

Now we have a bigger appliance that can be used for our little ones that need to be able to have a bigger work area, to be able to see more. I feel as though there are so many options appearing before us . So many ideas bustling around in my head its going to explode - I don't know where to turn. No its alright I've calmed down, just need to get stuck in a see what can be done. Back soon
