There is an easy way to start the Kindle menus talking. Once you've
powered it on, hold down the Shift key at the bottom left and tap the
Spacebar. You won't hear anything, but if you let go of the Shift key,
wait a second or two and then press DownArrow, you should hear it.

This method and other information is on the RNIB eBooks web page about
the Kindle keyboard:

Thanks from me too. I'll look forward to test-driving these after I've
opened my Christmas prezzies.

Best,
