Hi, 

I received an Amazon Kindle wi-fi as a Christmas gift. The Kindle has been 
configured so as to automatically download all titles I purchase, from the 
Kindle Store wirelesly. I purchase titles, in the Kindle store using my PC (I 
believe the store is not accessible, to blind people using the device). 
Many of the titles are text to speech enabled, however some are not and those 
which lack this facility are shown as such in the Kindle store. I’ve found it 
relatively easy to navigate from page to page,within the menus. 
I believe that John Lewis also sell the device. Perhaps it is worth going into 
a store and looking at a Kindle prior to deciding whether to buy one. 

Hope this helps, 

Kevin

Hi List,

I see Tesco are selling an Amazon wifie Kindel and I would like to know if this 
model is accessible to blind people. I don’t know much about the kindel and 
would like to know if it speaks to you, I.E menu’s if there’s any. Your advice 
will be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance.
Jim
