You may wish to write to accessibility-kendle@xxxxxxxxxx and ask them to make
all of the iPhone at voices they own available. You may find one in there that
suits you better than the two that are bailable for you now. I don't know what
your favorite is on voice dream reader. But you may find something that you
like better if you had more choices.

I have two hearing aids and totally blind. I am very particular about
synthetic speech. There are some sounds which give me a migraine and others I
find it difficult to understand. The speech on the Kindle Keyboard was fine,
but the speech used for the Kindle books via the Kindle app just was not
going to do it for me. Voice dream Reader did make life a bit better, because
I did have options in selecting a voice I was Comfortable with. I came close
to burning out my Kindle Keyboard, because at that time this was the only
voice I could tolerate. I did not care that it was not completely accessible.
I have it tucked away for hard times or when I just want to make sure it is
still working.

them with voice dream reader using Neospeech.

Well, I don't know any thing about blue tooth either. I'll stick with my
keyboard kindle. Does what I need it to do. The problem is that many of
you think that just because you know all about this stuff, that all of us
do. I really don't consider something all that accessible if I need sighted
help to set it up or need to go buy extra stuff. But, again, what do I
know.

Thanks for your very informative message. It's to bad that blogger doesn't
know anything about using bluetooth.

That blogger apparently has no experience with using bluetooth
otherwise he would have made sure that the BT speakers he tried were
using a current version of Bluetooth such as version 4.x. I've seen
that behaviour not necessarily with a tablet from Amazon but with BT
devices using Bluetooth version 2.0 and such.
