 DigiCom 2000 - The DigiCom is the classic solution for someone with a lot to say!

     This digital recording device features up to 142 minutes of recording time with a two-row (16 characters/row) LCD display and a variable 4x8 message selection matrix. DigiCom's input flexibility let’s you directly select by touching the keyboard, scanning with one or two switches, or using a 4-direction joystick.

       The DigiCom 2000 comes with your choice of four different amounts of recording time. The page layouts are variable so you can start with cause and effect, offer simple choice, and work your way up to an advanced vocabulary, all with one device as you progress. It is easy to record messages and switch between pages. Whole messages can be stored under a single key, or sequences of keys can be used to build an entire phrase. The static overlays provide a more concrete representation to beginning communicators, allowing you to develop successful interactions that lead to literacy. Start with symbols or pictures, include a text prompt on each key, and end up using only letters and words to select your messages.
  
  
  
       Use a friend to record the messages for child or an adult, for a woman or a man. You can record in any language or several different languages depending on your listening audience. The natural sound of recorded human speech can be understood easier than many of the synthesized voices, and you may find the user practicing vocalizations, repeating what is heard from the DigiCom.
  
  
  
       Compared to an expensive dynamic display device, the DigiCom is rugged and durable, not fragile. The battery lasts a long time, but is ready to speak instantly. You can easily go all day or longer on a single charge, and it only takes four hours to recharge the battery. While dynamic display devices have lengthy boot up times, it doesn’t take any time at all to speak your mind with the DigiCom 2000
