I never could understand the fascination with that absolutely dreadful Alex voice; if I had a reader who gasped and breathed in that fashion, I'd take them to a service station and even pay for the required air.  The original IPhone voice does perfectly fine when using Kindle, and with no gasping or silly panting, YIKES!

I also like the Alex voice but the US and British female Siri voices are great also. The iPHONE Kindle app is working wonderfuly.

    *Subject:* Amazon Kindle books and best way to read

                  Greetings,

    I was gifted an eBook that someone really wants me to read. It’s
    an Amazon Kindle book. I seem to remember JAWS not doing well with
    such books a while back, but I don’t know if it has improved. What
    about on the iPhone? Is that any better?

    If anyone has any advice on how to best read this eBook, please
    share your ideas.

    Thanks much.

    Jim
