Yes, preprogrammed phrases are an option in etriloquist as a file tree format...
I was thinking along the lines of a "page" or window type format such as the major communication device manufacture type pages and/or proloquo...
But still no "all inclusive app" like "verbally" on a iPad?

Windows onscreen keyboard (in windows 7) is now resizable and has a word completion option. I would never bother with it in windows vista or below over click n type.
Abbreviation expansion through MS office, speed typer (free in W XP). There are a couple of cheap shareware options in vista and 7 for abbreviation expansion.
But etriloquist offers preprogrammed phrases no?

Hi Everyone!
Is there anything new in the world of Windows PC for text to speech these days?
I need a text to speech program with word prediction and pre-programmed phrases for a head mouse user on her PC while we go through the assessment and funding process.
Is there anything new? Other than....
* E-triloquist <http://www.etriloquist.com/> - www.etriloquist.com <http://www.etriloquist.com/> - speaks what you type and has preprogrammed phrases.
* Click-N-Type <http://www.lakefolks.org/cnt> - www.lakefolks.org/cnt - free onscreen keyboard if typing is difficult.
* Camera Mouse www.Cameramouse.org <http://www.cameramouse.org/>
Thanks in advance!
