I spent only a few days truly "blind" but spend a few weeks with almost no vision at all. Many legally blind people are like that - they can see very little, but they'd be able to turn on the audio on the Kindle. I was able to operate my iphone a bit and do other things when I was only 'mostly blind.'
Thanks for the response, Gideon. It seems to me that what is really warranted is a dual-action brought against both the publishers/authors and against Amazon -- the publishers/authors for turning off TTS and Amazon for not designing the Kindle so that a completely blind person could easily make use of the TTS.
