Donna, I fear it's the latter. I'm surprised Amazon haven't faced some sort of class action over this. As far as I know, the only accessible Kindle is the Kindle Keyboard, at a mere "£149, and from Amazon taking just 7 to 9 weeks to deliver.

Given that it’s Android based does anyone know if it will be accessible via speech or is Amazon as usual not interested in accessibility? Thanks Donna
