There are a lot of disabled people who have been clamoring for text-to-speech functionality in the Kindle since it was first released. Not every book released on the Kindle is available as an audio book.

I'm sorry that I keep harping on disability issues on the forum, because I realize that it's probably irritating people, but I am disappointed that a medium with so much potential for accessibility has so few supporters of accessibility.
