I used that TTS feature semi-regularly on a Kindle 2.

It wasn't a good experience but it was nice to be able to keep 'reading' a book while I was exercising.

It worked for me for over a decade, until I broke the device. I don't know if I never updated the firmware or if the fact I used Calibre to convert books bypassed the feature gate.
