I think the Kindle Touch (the successor to the K3) had a speaker and TTS, didn't it? I have a vague recollection of this being the case, but I may well be wrong.

EDIT: Yes, it did. See:

This was the point at which the Kindle line split into the "basic Kindle" (the K4) and the Touch (the K5). The K5 had audio and TTS; the K4 didn't. The Touch was the last Kindle model to have a speaker.
