The spec says that the menus are self voicing and that books can be read
outloud, what isn’t clear is if you can using the in built speech purchase
books from the kindle market place. If not then the additional £40 for the 3g
version would be wasted.

HI. Does anyone know if the new 109 or 149 pound kindles are accessible? And if
so, is the speech synth any good? I'm an eloquence fan as it's good at speed)
