Amazon Echo

I pre-ordered the Amazon Echo at half price ($99) with my Amazon Prime membership.  The Echo, which responds to its name "Alexa", is a voice recognition device that plays music, is an alarm clock and can answer questions.  It's nine inches tall, must be plugged into an electrical outlet and have a good wireless Internet connection to work.  Wish I didn't have to wait until April.
