As I said above, I'm of the opinion that there are much better devices for TTS than an e-reader, such as a smartphone. Smaller, more powerful, less fragile, probably more customization options such as setting preferred voices.

You are wrong about the suitability of smart phones. The drawback of the phones for those with vision problems is the damn screens are so small they can't read the print to use the menues. It's why my father didn't but a cell phone. There is no way he could have used it. He couldn't even see the keys much less the screen.
