I agree. I also own a kindle, what I finde strange is books that don't
have text to speech enabled on my kindle can be read with their pc
program.

Hi,
The Kindle for pc, (the accessible version and not the standard version), works
partially with window-eyes, menus and books selection, and read the buttons
layout can be read OK, but to hear the book you must use the kindle's internal
voice.
Certainly amazon can do much better job than that.

Subject: Kindle for PC
Has anyone on this list gotten the accessible Kindle for PC program to work at
all? When I open the program, nothing is displayed. The only thing the mouse
sees is Register Kindle”. The Alt key produces nothing; arrow keys don’t work.
With a few lucky key presses, I can sometimes get the minue items to read with
Control_Numpad5. Occasionally, I get some library items to display, but I can
do nothing with them. Not to mention the fact that I can’t get my PC
registered. To make matters worse, I couldn’t understand the Amazon rep because
of her accent and was unable to do what she was asking.
