Woo I finally got an invite! My ship date is in May though. #shipdatechat No idea what I am gonna use this thing for but it seems cool. Anybody done anything with some of the home automation hacks for it that are out there?

Mine will finally be here Tuesday, but I'll be out of town for work. Excited to finally get to tinker with it though, after ordering in January.

Mine was originally supposed to ship 5/21 I think. It arrived today and I think it is really neat. I wish it could control the smart bulbs that are connected to my Wemo Link but for now it works fine.

I don't really do any media at all through Amazon but just having it be able to voice control my smart lighting and read me the news is plenty for me. It rarely messes up speech recognition for me or for my wife who typically has issues with recognition.

I love making it say curse words because of how it bleeps them cable TV style.

I use it with a few Wemo switches. Works great. My wife always fucks up the name of the devices ("light" instead of "lamp") and it is smart enough to work around that.

I kinda think I want a Dot, we find ourselves yelling from the bedroom to turn lights on and off as well as the compatibility with Nest being something I can see being great with that. It's funny how common my interactions with Alexa have become in daily life. I think this is the thing that really makes my connected home feel smart.

Alexa doesn't say OK anymore when I tell her to turn lights on and off, she just dings

They must have caved to the rage of the Internet, because my Alexa is back to saying OK when turning lights off and on again.

Came home from vacation to find my Echo completely dead. Pushed the reset button underneath and the whole nine yards and she won't do a thing. Out of warranty, too what a bummer

Anyone know of a place to buy repair parts for these? Interested to see if replacing the power board will bring mine back to life. I did go ahead and order an Echo Dot as we are too tied to our future voice control lifestyle to give it up at this point.

What is the wake word or command for the nest thermostat? Mine is called Hallway and I can't figure out how to make it work. The skills section in the Alexa app doesn't give an example either

Sound core would probably work better than my old Logitech speakers I am using now. Do you just leave it plugged in? My main thing is that I don't want to deal with having to worry about charging something.

What are the odds of Amazon ever supporting iCloud calendar integration on the Echo? Or is there any kind of workaround for it?

I think they are debuting the more human sounding voice like Apple did with Siri not long ago. If you say “Alexa, you sound different” she responds and says something about how she is learning- and sounds much more realistic.

Anyone else seeing a 50% off coupon on the Anker Roav car Alexa thing? It shows up but when I go to my cart it is only 10% off.
