Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Now! Our Popular Cheap Talk comes in an 8 message version, too!

Cheap Talk 8 has all the benefits of the Cheap Talk 4 series and it stores twice as many messages! This user friendly teaching tool is great for providing communication and cognitive support, as well as enhancing and developing expressive and receptive language skills. The Cheap Talk 8 allows you to record and rerecord eight 5-second messages as often as you'd like. Each 2" square has an easy- to-remove plastic protective cover to hold words and pictures. This style is similar to the Scan model. Can also be operated by pushing on the squares, or using your own switches. Accepts 1/8" plugs.
