While there are still times when a dedicated assistive technology (AT) device is necessary or recommended, the rise of the smartphone and tablet age has changed the way we look at AT.

And one device, such as a $500 tablet, can provide a number of functions that would have taken several dedicated devices to accomplish in the past.
