[stylist] Kindle

[David Andrews]

While the Kindle does have text to speech, it isn't necessarily 
available with all books.  The Author can have it turned off.  And 
... the TTS doesn't work with menus, ordering books etc., so unless 
you can read the screen you will be unable to read the book independently.

Amazon has said they are working on access, supposed to have 
something out this summer.
