In particularly, I find it to be an egregious error that the software does not know to make a pause after a full stop, and make it sound like a new sentence after! It seems to simply ignore full stops, very odd. But it does pause by a dash, for some reason. So for example, the segment:
"That's why we like e-books. In Arabia it is well known..."
is read like:
"That's why we like e. Books in Arabia it is well known..."
Not great. :-)
I hope that they've kept the read-aloud feature in the upcoming Android Kindle, and that the necessarily more powerful processor has allowed them to include better speech software.
