Autism App
Leslie Clark and her husband have been trying to communicate
with their autistic 7-year-old son, JW, for years, but until
last month, the closest they got was rudimentary sign language.
He's "a little bit of a mini-genius," Clark says, but like
many autistic children, JW doesn't speak at all. Desperate
to communicate with him, she considered buying a specialized
device like the ones at his elementary school in Lincoln,
Neb. But the text-to-speech machines are huge, heavy and expensive;
a few go for $8,000 to $10,000. Then a teacher told her about
a new application [autism app] that a researcher had developed
for, of all things, the iPhone and iPod Touch. Clark drove
to the local Best Buy and picked up a Touch, then downloaded
the "app" from iTunes. Total cost: about $500. -From USA Today
