[stylist] Revised thoughts on Kindle for PC

[Donna Hill]

Robert,
Haven't had much time, but I downloaded Kindle for PC with accessibility
plug-in.  Jaws works for the menus and the Kindle synthesizer reads the text
of the book. It's not the greatest voice, but I haven't checked to see if
you can switch to a male voice or change the pitch. It does work though.
It's Control+r to read.

And so have you figured this Kendal program out?

Robert,
I have been Googling around and found that there is a Kindle for PC with an
accessibility plug-in that is tested with Jaws and NVDA. If it works as
promised, it should be a better idea than using the epub version with Adobe
Digital Editions.
 
It's a big download, and it wasn't working right till I did it from Firefox.
Too late to try it tonight.
Donna
