| Important Many funding sources require speech generating devices to be sold
as dedicated (closed) devices. Closed devices have limited internet and app
store access. Once a speech generating device is delivered to the user or
their representative, they are permitted to open the device for an additional
fee, giving them full access to the internet and the app store. If you would
like to learn more about opening a closed device, call
1-800-344-1778.
