For $20. more I can order the Kindle with sound. I remember listening the Harry Potter series. The narrator has the most wonderful voice. I could have listened to him forever! The series were on cassette tapes. BUT, I am thinking of listening while driving and that can be accomplished by popping in a CD. Thanks for responding. I want to have my Kindle loaded and ready to go to Cancun with us in December, so I need to decide!
