This is all I have and all I do, so most channels come out of TuneIn.  This 
covers the most common or popular.
The Sleep command in conjunction with that make the device worth it's price.  
Talking radio alarm clock,...   any idea how much the 
V.I specific ones cost?

These Echo's are a revelation in our world as VoiceOver was in phones.

Indeed, talking calculators will go to the wall next, since Echo can do more of 
that than any previous calculator so far, let alone 
a talking one.
E.g:  turning iOs calculator to landscape for scientific functions, still 
doesn't offer a cube root function.

ok, getting a bit OT and your dad might not be interested, but ya never know!

You do not need Prime, just a free Amazon account to set up an Echo.
So, Giannys Father could use it so long as he has WiFi.

Hello,

I don't think you do, unless you have to have prime to get an echo in
the first place. I have had prime since before I had an echo so I'd
have no experience in using one without it.
However, their are a lot of radio aps you can get for the echo that
come to no extra cost, like radio player. If you can let me know which
stations your father will likely use, I would be more than happy to
investigate and recommend an app for you.
