Really hope Logitech adds HomeKit to the harmony hub.

I mean this entire thread is pointless. It’s so dumb. Why make a thread for something 3 people will buy.

e: Like, if Siri wasn’t horseshit then that’s a different story. But “hey Siri play some music” followed by “hey Siri what time is it” pauses the music forever which is just ridiculous. Yeah I’m really upset about a lovely voice assistant.

You really are and it's really abrasive to read.

the Verge has been nothing but clickbait concern sensationalism, I would take anything they say with a grain of salt and just wait to see what the public says.

As much as I can't stand Nilay, he brings up some good points.

My point was, for all the Verge/Nilays bullshit he brings up good points and that doesn't mean I'm endorsing him/the verge.

The only real problem I had with the review is him calling HomeKit "fiddly" which isn't my experience at all.

Hold up, I thought the HomePod will act as a hub of you don't have an Apple TV or stay at home iPad.

I got my 65 year old parents a HomePod for Christmas! They like the sound quality. Is there a “Hey Siri” for boomers guide somewhere?
