You can choose English from other countries, but you don't have multiple
choices with in the US English option. It looks like you can either check it
or uncheck it, but that's it.

Somewhere under settings general accessability there is a language rotor option

What other voice over things do I need to turn on. I did poke around and
found accessibility under settings and a way to increase the speech rate,
but didn't find any way to change the voice. Is this possible, and where do
I look? Thanks.

Butch,
You can get the Kindle for PC app from the iTunes store. It's free. Then
on your Touch register it and you can start choosing to send your Kindle
books there when you buy them on Amazon. I have the Touch set up with
VoiceOver, which comes with it, so it reads everything on the screen
including Kindle books.
I may have figured out how Amazon is going to get around the accessibility
requirement if no other way.. they have a relationship with Audible now
that let's you buy both the Audible and the Kindle book at the same time
and it is wired to be able to switch back and forth. So they will be able
to say "But many of the books are accessible if you buy the package..."
Of course that won't make me happy at all since I rarely find much I want
to read on Audible...
