Hi
The kindle is amazing. As a braille reader and somebody who doesn't
particularly like conventional audio books it has revolutionised my reading.
About 95 per cent of all the books I have looked are enabled for speech.
When you first get it some sighted help might be an advantage as you have to
turn on the speech function. Although I was able to do this with the help
of the excellent customer service people telling me how many times to move
down or up and when to press stuff. The only thing that is totally not
accessible is to search for books and download them via the kindle so a 3g
version isn't worth it. You should go for the wi-fi version instead. You
just go to amazon on you laptop or pc and select your book you can then
download it wirelessly which is free straight to your kindle. You can also
put other files on there such as pdf but I don't know if these are spoken
and audio books from audible.com or audible.co.uk.
hope all this isn't too much waffle for you.
