Agreed. I think the education market is lucrative enough for Amazon to look at this. I don't expect we will see built-in speakers in e-ink Kindles unless really necessary, but I do think we will see tts, bluetooth and support for Audiobooks. I also expect that some use will be made of Alexa. Leaving aside e-ink readers, a Fire Tablet with Alexa may prove very attractive so far as accessibility is concerned. And no doubt Amazon could do it at a very attractive price.
