[nfbcs] Device needed to help a client communicate who can't talk

[Buddy Brannan]

Sure. Avoid the cellphone monthly charges and get an iPod Touch and bluetooth keyboard. Or an iPhone and bluetooth keyboard. I think there actually is an app for that, I remember seeing an article on same, but I'd have to look for the reference.

It seems to me that some time back I heard of a device where the client typed on a keyboard and then what they typed was spoken.  What I can't remember is if it was software for a computer or if it was a standalone device.
