Hi Charisma!
Initially, when he first got me the Kindle, Bruce figured out how to have
the tts read a book. Since I have an optacon, I was able to get into the
settings menu to turn the tts on for the menus. All of that is turned off
by default.
Now that it is all set up, when I want to turn the reading tts off
temporarily so that I can turn pages, it's easy, so no sight is required.
I am not sure what the keys are called, but there is one in the lower left
and corner of the entire keyboard and the left-hand key above the Home key
that I hold down simultaneously to turn the reading tts off so I can turn
back or forward the number of pages I wan to go and then hit the same key
combination to turn tts back on so I can continue reading. To start the
reading, I just hit the space bar, which will toggle the reading on and
off. While the reading is going on, the pages turn automatically.
I have the Kindle 3G.

How do you run the TTS on your Kindle, Debby? I heard it requires site to
activate and navigate.
