Hi Kimmer, although I read recently that the Fire now has TTS, I suspect you could *only* use it with books, and the Fire is Amazon's answer to a tablet, so I wouldn't even consider it ...too much we can't use. On the other hand, the Kindle keyboard is almost perfection! Yu can do 99.5% of anything a sighted person can do on it ...so that's the one you want! Get it, learn how to use it ...and your reading life will *never* be the same! Shoshana
