Amazon’s voice-savvy Echo speaker now reads audiobooks to you

Amazon Echo speaker

If you’re the sort to wander around the house listening to audiobook versions of hot new novels, Amazon just made your day: it upgraded its voice-guided Echo speaker to handle Audible files. Much like a kid asking for a bedtime story, you only have to ask the Echo to read you a title. It’ll even pick up where you left off without mentioning the book by name. Amazon’s audio tube won’t speak text (at least, not yet), but this is a big step forward if music playback alone just won’t cut it.
