Actually, there's not much setup needed now I think. You might need to
set up an AWS IOT "Thing" to represent the server - I did this, but I
don't think it was needed in the end.

Definitely yes for the MQTT transport version (beta!). I'd recommend
sticking with the SSL transport unless you -need- to use the MQTT
especially if you're new to AWS stuff. 

If you do decide try MQTT though - the IOT homepage is here
https://console.aws.amazon.com/iot, and you can use 'mosquitto'
(https://mosquitto.org/) to test our your MQTT setup before even
starting with squeeze alexa.

Generally it's easier to jump on the Gitter chatroom:
https://gitter.im/squeeze-alexa/Lobby especially if there are other
people trying this too...
