Mojoe Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Seems pretty neat. And, it's half off if you have Amazon Prime. http://www.amazon.com/oc/echo/ref_=ods_dp_ae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second Gen Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Kind of agree with Joe / Rob.. Looks cool (if you do not mind Amazon mining more of your personal information). Plus is she / Alexa listening all the time (Hmmmm). That probably scares me more than anthing else.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleguy Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 So it's a really cool alarm clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 That's actually kinda cool. It's pretty much like Siri. However, it picks up voices in the room, so you have to move it room to room as you need it. My iphone fits in my pocket, and I have it with me all of the time.

Mowgli1647545497 Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Except the iPhone makes you gay, and the Echo makes you a woman. so I guess there's really no difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotCarl Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Kind of agree with Joe / Rob.. Looks cool (if you do not mind Amazon mining more of your personal information). Plus is she / Alexa listening all the time (Hmmmm). That probably scares me more than anthing else.... The button on top turns off the microphone. It kind of looks cool, but i feel like its one of those gadgets that people will but thinking they will use it all the time and end up never using it at all.

TeddyBearFromHell Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Isn't that what happens when Wonder Woman yells while visiting the Grand Canyon (Amazon Echo)? http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y163/AnneBasso/daily%20blog%20post%20pics/28682-Hell-no-gif-CD0Y_zps5531b847.jpg ....I'm just saying.

Coaster Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 It will be interesting to see how well it works in real life with background noise. Androids voice commands work pretty well most of the time. If there is any appreciable amount of noise though I have a hard time getting the complete command to be understood. Usually gets 4 out of 5 words, but still falls on its face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickey4271647545519 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Just got mine about an hour ago. Loving it so far. That's actually kinda cool. It's pretty much like Siri. However, it picks up voices in the room, so you have to move it room to room as you need it. My iphone fits in my pocket, and I have it with me all of the time. Has a remote with it to extend range, no need to really move it. It will be interesting to see how well it works in real life with background noise. Androids voice commands work pretty well most of the time. If there is any appreciable amount of noise though I have a hard time getting the complete command to be understood. Usually gets 4 out of 5 words, but still falls on its face. With music turned all the way up (from the echo itself, which is pretty loud and sounds good), it can hear and understand my commands all the way across the room.
