Great idea!

I'm glad to see Amazon is at least trying to support those with low vision. I've been searching for a device that will play audiobooks and/or read books aloud that I can give to a friend with low vision. Most devices are way too complicated or otherwise limited, but the Kindle Fire should, I hope, at least be a step in the right direction.
Someday someone will develop a device that's easy to work with for those who don't see very well. Easy to learn, shop for content, load with books (etc.), and navigate. A tall order, but I'm certain it can be done!
