I have dyslexia and am looking for products to help. Saw some pen that reads to you but don't know anyone that tried it. Now my wife is my spell check and editor. If you have dyslexia have you found any devices that actually work.

No I haven't, but this is such an interesting discussion topic, I will be following it! I know another member who is dyslexic. If you ever want a proof reader for your reviews, you know, other than your wife, I would be more than happy to do it for you! Just PM me if you like! That goes for anybody else, too

I have pretty servier dyslexia (however over the years my spelling has gotten much better, though i still have to spell check almost all of my post). OpenDyslexic is a font program you can download, it's aimed at those who have dyslexia with an emphasized bottom on the font to help make reading easier for those with the learning disability, It's something i plan on using as soon as the school year starts back up.
As for a pointer type device for reading i havent used one since i was younger, but i do have a lot of trouble sometimes reading smaller typed print with a 1 point spacing (opposed to a 2 point) and usually have to read a few paragraphs over a couple times. I would suggest the finger pointer book maker. I also often use my finer to mark my place while i read a long too.

I was hoping you would respond to this thread because I remembered you mentioning your dyslexia to me , I just didn't want to mention your name without permission! I didn't know about the things you mentioned & suspect you have just helped a lot more people than just Bakeme!
