Hi,
Just wondering if any Canadian list members own an Amazon Echo and how capable it is here. I was listening to the Cool BlindTech Podcast from CSun with the guy from Amazon and while I am not heavily invested in the Amazon ecosystem with music, movies, Kindle or even a prime membership, I am an avid and daily Audible user and the Echo does intrique me when it comes to Audible and some other things also. But considering it is not available from Amazon.ca I wonder how much of what it can do it can do here in Canada. It really is too bad that Apple who pioneered the digital assistant with SIRI is fallen so far behind, SIRI should be able to do all the Echo can do and more. How cool would it be if the new Apple TV had the same capability, instead of pushing a button on the remote it could be listening just like the Echo does and accept commands and for when the TV is not on the option to hook up a speaker could provide output for requests.
