Kindle supports all document files  - Doc, pdf, Mobi, TXT, EPub etc.
So any book on your PC, can be transferred to Kindle.
No need to purchase Kindle books. Of course, they are a bit costlier.
Many sighted students are using Kindle these days and reading ncert books,
sample papers etc on Kindle.
But the version which most of these students use, does not have any speech
support.
Recently, I bought Kindle white in around ten thousand rupees for my
daughter.
It has internet WI FI support, Online dictionary, a bit of editing options,
book marks etc. but there is no speech support.

If you buy one of the Kindle Fire tablets, it comes with a built-in screen
reader. it is a very good screen reader too. Alternatively, if you have an
iPhone/iPad or an Android device, you can download the Kindle app and get
access to the same books on your preferred device using either VoiceOver or
Talkback as per your device preference. If you do have one of these devices
already, I would try the Kindle app first before investing in a Kindle Fire
device.

It is true that Kindle has millions of books but you need to remember that
they are not free. I have seen users in India complain that they don't have
access to all the books and the prices are bit on the higher side.

Regards,
Kiran

Subject: [AI] Query regarding Kindle/E-book Reader

Dear All,

It would be appreciated if you could share your experiences/learning about
Kindle-E-book Reader. Heard information is that it gives access to millions
of books. Are there friends who have been using it probably who are in to
academics?

Do we have to install JAWS/NVDA as the case maybe, or does it have in-built
audio reader exist? Please respond.

Thanks

Kailas

May god's bright blessings and light be with each of us.
