Larry after asking for an invitation to buy one did you eventually receive
the opportunity to buy one, and place the order? It is kind of a two step
process asking for an invite then receiving the invite after a few weeks
and placing your order when you receive the email invite. I think do to
the debacle of the Fire phone Amazon did not want to manufacture a lot of
the Echos in case the demand was limited.

Hello,
I would like to have an echo. I requested an invitation in early April
and there was an indication I should hear something in several weeks.
Since the echoes will begin shipping on July 14 I am wondering if I will
receive one.
I hope the unit will work with airplay.

Hi May,
I remember when the ability to use your iTunes library through echo via
the iPhone first became available on echo. They didn't mention the
ability to do anything else with the Bluetooth from the iPhone to your
echo. I would be very interested to know what your friend is able to do
with Bluetooth from their iPhone to the echo, and whether they are a vo
user.

I'll have to ask a friend of mine, but he has his IPhone and echo
connected and plays everything through the echo with no problems.

Brian,
I don't think you're supposed to be able to play MLB from your phone
to the echo. ITunes. I think that's it. The Bluetooth will take your
iTunes stuff that you select on your iPhone and plant over the echo
speaker. I haven't done it. But that is what is supposed to do. As for
your other stuff, no, it is a bust. The Mac app is kind of strange in
that you have to do a lot of mouse rotting and pressing and praying,
and eventually, you can probably get your news flash list set up the
way you wanted. But forget that to do and the shopping list. No go all
the way around until Amazon gets its accessibility act together
sometime the next millennium.

Just got my Amazon Echo today, and have read on the list that certain
things for the Echo do not work with VoiceOVer. It took awhile and
some frustration but I finally got it to connect to my wifi network.I
wanted to see if anyone found any works arounds for these two things.
One I connected my iPhone via bluetooth to the Echo, but this
completely knocked out VoiceOVer, congrats to Amazon for making the
first bluetooth speaker that does not work with VO. Can anyone get
their iPhone VO to play over the Echo? I want to pair it so I can
listen to MLV At Bat games through the echo. The other thing I
noticed is there is no way to delete items that you have added to
your to do list and shopping list. I tried clicking the delete button
both on the iPhone app and then on safari on th emac, but instead of
deleting items it just kept swapping the item I clicked delete from
one list to the other so taking a item on the shopping list and
instead of deleting it moved it to the to do list. The button next to
delete is move to the other list so obviously some kind of a focus
issue. If anyone has had any luck with any of this please do let us
know. Thanks,
