Ubi comes with network issues right out of the box, so it won't connect. A quick Google search shows that the answer from Ubi support is to set up another network on my router...ugh. I think I may be sending the Ubi back. A shame, too, because the Ubi demo shows it doing more of the things that I need, like verbal reminders. One of the things I want is for these devices to verbally nag me to take my medication. The Ubi is probably closer to being able to do that right now than the Echo is. However, if it can't connect to my network it's even less useful than my Echo. I guess I'm stuck with the little pop-up reminders on my Mac calendar for now.
