I have an Echo which I got at the Prime presale price and a Dot which cost $40. I wouldn't pay full (or sale) price for an Echo (or Look, or Show). But the Dot is nifty and there's always another sale.

The more I think about it, I can see the Show catching on, as an upgrade to the Echo, especially for new buyers. Having both the speakers and the screen in a little desktop unit that can perch on a kitchen counter might be worth the extra bucks for someone who was already wanting an Echo.
The Look, though--that one has me shaking my head.
Other than the Dot, the only other such device I would consider purchasing is the Tap, for the portability, if the price point came down to $75 or so.
