I actually haven't read what echo does yet, but it's the potential that's most interesting

Have one in every room, connected to smart devices (lights, AC, power outlets, etc).

That's a lot of disposable income you're talking there at $200 a pop.

You could do the same with a PC and a bunch of arduinos.

Again, long term. Also I thought they were $100 a pop

They are $100 for Prime members but it is invite only and I doubt they'll let you buy seven of them at that price if list price is $200.

From watching the video it doesn't look like it has the functionality you require. It's pretty much Siri in a tube.
