I'm wondering if there are any visually impaired Kindle Keyboard users reading this message. I recently acquired one as it was given to me as a gift. While the device has its share of annoying accessibility shortcomings I'm absolutely tickled with this device. Access to books is very important to me and the Kindle has given me access to titles not available from other services.
