I'd suggest a color device is not necessary then. PocketBooks and Kobos are both great devices. I'd lean more to Kobo if Audiobooks and TTS isn't a requirement.
Thanks!
Now, I am intrigued with TTS...learning another language? That might be something I'd do. Never occurred to me about using TTS learn a language.

I have done some more research on Kobos and they sell audiobooks, so the Kobos do not have speakers, therefore, no TTS.

My Samsung phone can play audiobooks so I can use Smart Audiobook Player, Listen Audiobook Player, Google Play Books, Libby, or Plex.

Only problem I can see is syncing with my phone. I guess the Kobo app for Android could do that, but I am not sure. PocketBook app should work on my phone. I need to see if Kobo and PocketBook apps can sync.
