Vantage Plus
Compact and lightweight, Vantage combines maximum portability with independent communication for both children and adults. Only PRC communication products give users the option of all three language representation methods: single-meaning pictures, spelling systems, and semantic compaction. Vantage comes with both Unique 45 and Unity 84 programs pre-programmed in this device. You can select from integrated versions of Unity ranging from starter vocabularies of 150 words up to the full Unity program of 3,000 words. These Unity programs feature quick access to core vocabulary plus the unique Activity Row, Spelling and Word Prediction, and Page-based vocabularies.
The Picture Prediction feature in Vantage actually "learns" the user's most common extended vocabulary choices and automatically arranges the Activity Row icons for the most convenient words.
Expanded WordCore Program -- WordCore 45 and 84 are included in each Vantage. These word-based vocabulary systems can be used quickly by anyone who can read and spell. Adults with acquired disabilities will find WordCore to be powerful communication tool that can be learned in a matter of minutes.
