[gui-talk] [nfbcs] Kindle app accessible?

[Beth Wright]

Hi.

As far as I can tell, all the Kindle books are accessible with the Kindle 
for PC app, but you need to be sure to get the one with the accessibility 
plug-in.  Hopefully, someone with more technical savvy can give you a more 
detailed explanation as to how to get it and how it works.
