Hi Adrian, The Kindle voice is actually pretty tolerable.

I don't like synthesised voices either.

The Kindle Keyboard was good but fairly limited compared to the app. But those who don't have an Apple device may find the Kindle Fire HDX and such-like an alternative. My concern is that the HDX is only partly accessible which then becomes a bit of a bugger! (smile).

I was looking at them on Friday night on amazon but really don't want another touch screen device.

I think RNIB has some info on the various Kindle options, so perhaps do a search on their website?

Do they have speech software built in?
