Re: Kindell verses iBooks
To the best of my knowledge, Kindle books are not available through 3rd-party sellers, not legally, anyway. They are sold by Amazon at its Kindle store, which you get to by using the web browser and platform of your choice, then have the book sent to your i-device, which has the app registered on it. As for the page numbers, you are right that Kindle doesn't announce them, but you can see then in the application's menu when you're in a book. Also, I'm pretty sure that the page numbers do not actually correspond to print pages, because, at least for iBooks, and I assume for Kindle as well, the number of pages it thinks are in the book depends on which device you're using and your font size. That is, for example, a given book when displayed in iBooks on the iPhone has a lot more pages than that same book on an iPad. So it is worthless for purposes of footnoting, if that's what you're thinking about.

Re: Kindell verses iBooks
Hi Brad, I have not yet upgraded to iOS 7, so I am not experiencing any of the problems you mentioned. However, I have been using the Kindle app and like it a lot, except for one thing. Recently, Kindle has implemented a system where you can separate books in to categories like you can with iBooks. Unfortunately, moving the books into the categories you have made does not take them out of the Central listing. Thus, if you have a large library, and you go through and move say all of your cookbooks into a new section. They still remain in the central library listing. This means that when you go back to put more books into a different category you are stuck flicking through all of the books you supposedly just moved into the cookbooks category. The other very bad thing about the Amazon Kindle app and it's new categories is that when you're in the categories are collections section and you flick through the titles of the collections they're not read by voiceover. This is a glaring accessibility error, and if you have a lot of different collections, the only solution is for you to have memorized in alphabetical order the names of all your collections. I hope they fix that in a future upgrade. On the other hand, Kindle books are generally either the same or often cheaper than IBooks. And there are many many more books on Kindle then there are in iBooks. All that having been said, I do still like the iBooks app because of it's much more efficient categories. And if a book is similar or the same in price I will get the iBook for that reason.

Re: Kindell verses iBooks
I use kindle app on IPhone or iPad for kindle books and purchase audible books linked to amazon account and then read them if I choose on a digital recorder. I don't really use the whisper sink but my mom and I share the kindle account so she also is reading the kindle books. Works for us. I read in kindle, Ibooks, audible and enjoy all of them.

RE: Kindell verses iBooks
Hi Ricardo and others on this subject, Thank you for your responses. In trying out both a Kindle book and an iBook, I noticed that the kindle app does not announce page numbers as one moves page by page neither in braille or with voiceover. Is there a setting that I am missing? Or is this really the case with the app? Also, if one were to get the kindle copy and it is available through a third party seller, would one simply download the book and transfer it to the Kindle app via iTunes?

Re: Kindell verses iBooks
Hi, As far as i know, Kindel and iBooks both does not anounnce page turn when you turn from page to page. I also found that it is easier to navigate page turn on iBooks, if you wish to do it manually compare to Kindel. In order to navigate page turn, or to a specific page on Kindel, if you are a voiceover user, you need to double tap to bring out the menu, and 'go to button', which is where you have the choice of table of contents, begining book, end of book, etc. What i found anoying with Kindel is it gives you the percentage of the book by default rather than the page by default. This means, is harder for One to go back in the future for reference purposes or such. As far as downloading other books are concern, you can simply download your third party books thru your email. When you got a 'dot mobi' file on your attachment, it will promp you as to which program you want to open with. choose Kindel, and the book will transfer to your kindel, under device rather than cloud library. Hope this help Regards Joanne Chua The flip side of Inclusion is Exclusion.

As far as Voiceover speech, there's really no difference in my opinion. They both do continuous reading. In iBooks, you might find it easier to navigate via table of contents in books since this is not always provided in Kindle books. But, both apps are free, and both have free books you can download so you can get a feel for which one you like best with Braille support.

RE: Kindell verses iBooks
I think you are able to navigate kindle books in whichever way the author chose to mark them up. Some have pages and some have chapters and some do not. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Joanne Chua Sent: Monday, September 23, 2013 7:38 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Kindell verses iBooks Hi, As far as i know, Kindel and iBooks both does not anounnce page turn when you turn from page to page.
