    $700 is a bargain. My kid got a speech tablet which is just a small Samsung tablet with a speaker mounted on the back and they billed our insurance $3500 for it.

      Why not just buy a high end tablet and speaker at that point?

        Mainly because insurance paid for it but also because I don’t have the skills to replicate their software even though it’s essentially just text-to-speech software with what might as well be considered clipart images.
