Just followed the guide to successfully change the TTS voice, worked great thanks!

But I need to speed read some books for work...do any of you know how to hack the TTS speed settings in the Kindle Fire UK?

I use Ghostreader on my iMac at home at a speed of 700 - at the Kindle Fire's max speed of 4x it sounds more like 350-400 on Ghostreader - but Kindle's TTS is portable so I could speed read all the way to work rather than it taking up my own time at home if I can get the speed increased...

Would be good too for those who read fiction and want to micro adjust speeds in the slower range up or down...

Hopefully one of you clever coders can figure this out, I can even make a small donation to make it work your while!

Thanks - Paul
