I talk with Dan Tedesco of HandHold Adaptive about iPrompts, their new iPod Touch/iPhone application for people with special needs.  In their own words "iPrompts: [is] the portable, customizable, visual prompting tool for those with special needs."

Basically the app lets me put together a visual schedule (think Teacch )for my son on my iPod Touch.  I can import pictures and customize it as needed.  Great product.  We also discuss HandHold Adaptive’s other  products they have in the pipeline.

Here is some more information from their website:
