Kindle USB Audio Adapter
Amazon has recently released a Kindle Paperwhite Blind and Visually Impaired Readers Bundle that adds TTS output to a Kindle Paperwhite.

IIRC, someone mentioned that Firmware 5.7.4 devices come with a full set of TTS voices. I wondering whether it would be possible to use a cheap USB audio dongle and a 5V battery or a powered USB hub to TTS-enable a regular Kindle Paperwhite?

I'd appreciate it if someone with the necessary hardware and firmware skills could investigate this.
