Amazon’s 11 new Echo products from its big event – Stacey on IoT | Internet of Things news and analysis
Amazon’s David Limp took to the stage at an Amazon event on Thursday saying that we had to get started because he had 70 pieces of news to share. I didn’t count them all but there were 11 new Echo devices launched at the event starting with a new version of the Echo Dot and ending with the Echo Auto for your car.
The Echo Dot: The new Echo Dot will cost $49.95. You can pre-order it now and it will be released Oct. 11. It looks like what might happen if your Apple HomePod and the Google Home Mini had a baby. I hate the fabric mesh design, but it’s apparently a thing, so I had better get used to it. This sounds better than the original Dot, but there’s not a whole lot here that is interesting.
