Audiobook-text integration? About time. People have been asking for that since at least the Kindle 2, but Amazon's the first to find a way to do it.

Bummer, no more Kindle TTS it seems. Guess I have to listen on the phone from here on in! (Yes, I'm probably one of the few that uses that on a reg'lar basis... to and from work, and occasionally on the treadmill.)

Let the kids walk home. The exercise will do them good.

Dang that was my idea! If I'd patented it I'd be trolling Bezos for my retirement right now!!

Seriously, I hope this doesn't mean they have ditched TTS.
