I’m going to assume you have a Kindle Fire HD, since you are commenting on a post about them. If you don’t, please comment again.

When you hit the play button for the text-to-speech, you’ll see a button that says “1X” off your right side of the position indicator (in line with the play button). You can tap that to adjust the speed…it starts at 1X (for 1 “times” or, normal speed) and can go up to 4X (and down to .7x).

Amazon has just released a new update for the Fire HD. The only reason I know about it is because I was on a long call to Kindle CS trying to trouble-shoot a problem and the 8.9 Fire HD starting updating in the middle of the call (Amazon had released it at that moment). Don’t know what other models are involved in the update.

You name it, it does it. :) The voice feature is superb and it helps my cousin put down notes on his journal from his lecture recordings he may have missed.

Good post
