It's quite possible I didn't, so the problem I was having might have been sorted in that version. Having said that, I haven't seen anyone else reporting the same issue of the Kindle TTS ignoring periods, with any version of the firmware, so I don't know if it was a glitch on my Kindle only. I do know I tried it with several different books, in case it was something weird about one particular book, but I found my Kindle did it with every book I tried.

I never upgraded to 3.03 either, so that explanation makes sense.
Here's a test, though: With the 3.1 update, mine now pauses at periods, but it still doesn't pause for exclamation points or question marks.
So...
"How do you know?"
"I was there."
Sounds like:
"How do you know I was there."
It can definitely make for some confusion.
So you yours still ignore !s and ?s too?
Otherwise, I'm so happy to have TTS at all, the pronunciation quirks don't bother me.
