     Hi David,I think the best person for you to contact and answer all 
of your questions would be Madalaine Pugliese. She runs an consulting 
firm that has several specialized trained people in adaptive technology. 
The firm specializes in training others in adaptive technology and also 
does several semminars and courses that offer certification in adaptive 
soft and hardware. I met her and her associates at the Abilities Expo 
where they had also set up a seminar. The amount of adaptive computer 
equiptment and software that they had was staggering. They had 
equiptment for Macs and PCs as well as a Kurtwiel reader. The software 
ranged from teaching speach and reading programs for children to the 
voice input and out put systems and alternative input conversions and 
hardware. They also has a basketball game where one of the players is in 
a wheelchair.  You can contact Madalaine Pugliese and Associates at
                               5 Bessom St. Suite 175
                               Marblehead, MA 01945
                               (617) 639-1930
   They do set up seminars and courses across the country so be patient 
if you get and answering machine. She does check in regularly when she 
is on the road.
