Nan, it is disheartening indeed. On the other hand, perhaps it is Amazon's policy not to officially monitor any lists not connected directly with the company. Who can tell for sure?

This is very very interesting. That they were not interested in monitoring vi-kindle is disheartening. As i said in my last post, i am afraid to rock the boat... that's unusual for me since I am almost always ready to advocate for improvements in as positive a way as i can -- i am not an NFB member. But the loss of the TTS feature would be a devastating blow to me personally and professionally. So I am afraid to do what i would do normally, and that's to write articles and post about this disinterest on their part.. companies like Amazon are sensitive to bad PR.. and this is such a trivial thing, assigning someone to monitor a tiny list, that all I can conclude is that they don't want to open the discussion up publicly.

For now, I'll say no more.
