Shoshana, you certainly have me beat as far as the number of books I have on my Kindle, but, thanks to you and some others on list, I'll be catching up with you! It is amazing the number of free books that are available! I have found that if you reboot after a minute or so, speech is slower than usual... after loss of speech. But it always resets itself when I start reading again. This loss of speech is annoying, but it is certainly easy to deal with. I do remember when I lost speech those first few times. I panicked!

Yep, you have the Kindle Keyboard. No, you can't buy books from the Kindle, but you can, using your computer and going to Amazon.com ...it's easy, trust me, I should know, I've got over 1,000 books on my Kindle. Yes, there are a few menus you can't access, but you can do almost anything anyone else can do on your Kindle. BTW, when I've had to reboot my Kindle, everything was as I had it, and that includes reading speed.

It works in the menus and the same voice reads the books to me, because I can't see the display. however, it won't read webpages or help me to buy a book so someone with sight has to buy my books for me. It has wi-fi but no 3g. On the bottom right edge of my kindle, there is a raised square with a recessed area in the middle of it. There are also buttons on the left and right sides for turning pages. The screen is on top and there is a keyboard below that. ----- Original Message ----- From: kb7uengene <kb7uengene@xxxxxxxxx To: "vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date sent: Sun, 28 Oct 2012 00:07:15 -0500 Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: hi Hi Jessica, Welcome to the list. Do you have audible menu guidance on your Kindle? If so, then you have the Kindle Keyboard formally known as the Kindle 3. It is the only hardware based Kindle to be somewhat accessible to a person who is totally blind. If you are visually impaired and reading from the E-INK display, then could you tell me where your "HOME" button is located and whether you have a joy stick or a raised square with a recessed area in the middle of it? Knowing the answer to these two questions will narrow it down considerably for me. Thanks, Gene On Oct 27, 2012, at 8:11 PM, Jessica Brown <jessicabrown531@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi. My name is Jessica. I have been on this list for a couple of months or so but I have not posted anything yet. I have a kindle, but don't know what kind it is. How do you tell what model it is by feeling it? Thank you.

Turn right, then go straight!
Jeremiah 29:11-14 (Amplified Bible)
11For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the
Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to
give you hope in your final outcome.
12Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you.
13Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.(A)
14I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will release you from captivity and gather you from all the nations and all the places to which I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I caused you to be carried away captive.
