OK how do I get the latest update? Sorry to sound so like I don't know much but I'm really not a tech person. <grin> -----Original Message----- From: vi-kindle-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vi-kindle-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Russ Kiehne Sent: Sunday, October 28, 2012 8:10 AM To: vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: Question Regarding Speech When I bought my Kindle recently, it didn't have the latest firmware. I was able to check my firmware by placing my Kindle on my Scanner and using openbook to read the Kindle screen. -----Original Message----- From: CD Sent: Sunday, October 28, 2012 7:50 AM To: vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: Question Regarding Speech I should have the latest firmware.

Make sure you are running firmware 3.3 or greater. -----Original Message----- From: CD Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2012 6:04 PM To: vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-kindle] Question Regarding Speech A few times when Iâve been reading with the Kindle I hit home and somehow I lose my speech. Is there a quick fix for this so I can go in and turn it back on? Both timesit happened I had to have sighted help by going in to settings and making sure voice guide was on. I am a new Kindle user and after a couple of weeks Iâm loving it so would like to get this problems solved. Thanks! Carla
