Hi all,
Regarding the text to speech feature in Kindle, is it possible to read by
character, word, line, sentence etc? just as we do with jaws or n V D a etc.
In other words is the screen reader of the kindle very flexible?
Or The only thing we will be able to do is start
and stop speech?
Regards,
Rishi.

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

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.
