Partly.  But we're nowhere near there yet and some Kindle books still don't
allow speech access.

Glad to have the coalition website; and did the kindle become accessible?

Maybe I can explain. The Reading Rights Coalition is not officially
affiliated with the NFB, but it's a consortium of organizations who have
voiced their concerns about access to the Kindle and other mainstream
electronic books. The coalition is made up of blindness organizations as
well as organizations with other disabilities that make reading print
difficult. The web site is

www.readingrights.org

Thanks.
