At home, I don't really sit around with my phone in my pocket though. Maybe I am unusual that way. Echo is not a portable device like a phone, its meant for the home, living room and such. Plugged in.

I just did a search on amazon.com and it says usually ships in 3 to 5 weeks.

No invitation, and thinking, other than the coolness factor, why would I need one of these?

Given time, it'll get more content. Would love to see Audible, Pandora, Live 365, Slacker, Spotify, and Stitcher added. |

I haven't received an invitation.
The Echo app is now available at Amazon. It's also at Google Play. I was able to install it on one of my two Android tablets, but the other is incompatible. While on the sign-in screen, the app froze my tablet. After rebooting, I uninstalled it. I'll try again when/if I decide to buy Echo. I'm looking forward to reading the reviews! |
