My first Kindle was bought in 2011 but my books are all stored in
Calibre so I never would have had more than a hundred on it so never
noticed speed of response to anything but the touch screen on later
models is far superior for ease of use. I use the Amazon provided Kindle
for PC and do not register the Kindle so do not receive any ads.
I suspect you would be very disappointed with the quality of text to
voice on this 2011 Kindle as the computer just produces words in a
computer voice with no change in emotion, speed or volumne.
