Got it, set it up, and it was a snap to do. Started my shopping list, set up traffic information so that my daughter can find out what's going on before leaving to work, synced it with Google calendar, tried it out with a few jokes, listened to some music, my oldest daughter who helped me set it up by pushing the button on top of the Echo-and that was all she had to do-already started me up a to do list of things she wants me to do tomorrow! And all of that only took about 45 minutes, just WOW :) :)
Very anxious to see how it works with Home Automation, I will get a couple of plugs tomorrow, and my son bought me a router that will allow me to interact with my X-10 built in plugs and switches. Maybe I can get open sesame to work again, and be able to turn off my heater and fan when I want to! Very anxious to hear what others are doing, Joan
