Hi Annie, Oh, yeah, I agree. And the ability to move up a line from the bottom of the page was something I immediately noticed and appreciated. I thought Kindle was going to be my favorite reader because of that, but my braille scrolling is just too slow to make it even viable. And I'm thrilled that Kindle is now accessible, but just really surprised at the sluggishness with braille. I've never experienced that in Nook, in Read2Go, or in iBooks.
