A long time ago, on another message board, someone who had a disability similar to my son's wrote that we would learn that technology is our friend. Yes, it definitely is.

My son is able to continue learning when his back or head hurts or when he is in his nighttime only brace that must be worn when lying down. Portability is a big help for us which is why the iPad and netbook and iPhone are a required educational expense for us.

We really liked the elements app and would like to see more things like that. I would like to see more educational apps.
