FYI My 2011 Kindle Touch can download and play Audible books. (Could it always?) Along with TTS and the ability to play mp3 files (which I guess Oasis 2 can't?). I'll be curious to see if the new Oasis can do TTS as easily as the Touch.

However, it does not do whisper-sync. It's straight up Audible, even when I have the companion ebook on the device.
Correction - I believe I was thinking of Immersion reading, which is what the Touch does not do. I think it would make the most sense if the new Oasis could do that, otherwise, I don't see much point of having Audible on it.
