| The updated version of the Grid access and communication software with several new features! The Grid 2 is a fully integrated communication package combining several tools and catering for a high level of accessibility. The software benefits anyone who finds it difficult to interact with a standard computer setup and can be operated using advanced switch options, a head mouse or joystick or even eye-gaze control. Building on the success of the Grid, which combines symbol and text communication with an onscreen keyboard, the Grid 2 benefits users with comprehensive language support and some inspiring new functionality. Remote communication, easy editing, extra functions and grid explorer make up this comprehensive accessibility and communication solution. Remote Communication combines Email, SMS text messaging and a web browser to enable users to access a range of global communication networks. Easy Editing with new cell shapes, grid backgrounds, layout formatting and each grid can contain up to 2500 cells! Extra Functions include: the Grid 2 word processor, enabling users to create, format, store and print documents; the Music Player, allowing users to play stored music, CD’s and video clips; a clock, calculator and battery level indicator. Grid Explorer allowing you to manage each user’s grids. One of the most exciting features of Grid 2 is the ability to share grids and resources. In addition to the resources created by the Sensory Software team, all Grid 2 users can join a grid-sharing community to upload or download grids. Users therefore benefit from access to prefabricated grids and also communication with other Grid 2 users! See it for yourself at http://grids.sensorysoftware.com. You can now upgrade to The Grid 2 from version 1. Now it is even easier to switch to The Grid 2 using The Grid 2 Importer. If you have grids already made in Clicker 4 or 5, Dynavox 3 or 4, or any version of Boardmaker and Speaking Dynamically Pro, you can now convert them for use with The Grid 2. This new tool allows you to import grids that have been made in other software and bring them to life with The Grid 2.
