Re: Echos and echo dots: do you have any? I'm disappointed with the echo in canada. It launched here on the fifth, but still does not support audible, despite amazon owning audible, and both a Canadian amazon and audible site existing. That was a large part of why I got the thing, to

Re: Echos and echo dots: do you have any? Dark, I do wonder if some of your difficulties come from being in the UK. Do you have Amazon Prime? I do, and that comes with a more limited version of Amazon music. My boyfriend has some swank business account, so he has Amazon music unlimited and

Re: Echos and echo dots: do you have any? That might be a good description of the second generation Echos, but the first generation are built with a metal shell, probably aluminum, with a rubberized skin.If you decide on an Echo I'd recommend going on eBay, you can still get bran
