The Amazon site says it has text-to-speech, but with their track record
on accessibility and a touch screen, I suspect this will mean once
you've navigated the book list and opened a book, you can have it read -
but crucially, there will be no access to menus or the book list. This
is guesswork, and I hope to get hold of a unit to test it when it
becomes available in the UK - apparently in April.
