The Kindle 2 is currently inaccessible to many blind people, although it can be used by people with low vision and others with print disabilities. However, on March 19, 2009, Amazon announced on its Kindle 2 blog that it will make the menus and controls on the Kindle 2 fully accessible to blind people.
