I picked up a couple of Echo Dots at a good price, gave them to my sons and they like them.
Picked up two more at better prices (free) and I've just started using them. One that intrigued me was using it in my car.
Have to finish preparing for class, so I can't do this post justice. But it was really easy to do, and will allow me to ride down the road, set reminders, add things to my calendar or my to do list, and even play Sirius XM Radio without my car having a SiriusXM Radio installed. I don't have anything smart in my home, and that goes very broadly for a lot of things, so I can't tell it to change my thermostat, turn off my lights, etc., but what it does is pretty cool in the car.
I have some videos of my daughter singing in various performances, and I converted those to MP3, uploaded them to my Amazon music library, and created a playlist when I just want to hear her voice singing while she is away at college. Dumb, but I have enjoyed it.
