Hello Angelo, I love the Kindle app, not because it's better than other apps; it gives me access to books which I might otherwise not be able to download and easily read. It has its problems. For instance, when I select a word to look up, it seems that I am almost never able to select the word I want when moving through a text word-by-word. I usually end up having unintentionally selected a word that is two or three words removed from the word I wanted. Then I have to fiddle with the right and left selection edges to single out the word I want. A hassle, but a price I am willing to pay.
As far as the bluetooth keyboard is concerned, once on the page you want to read, I believe that VO+A should start reading. The Kindle app is free, so if you wanted to try it, all you'd have to do is acquire a Kindle book from Amazon.
