This Time It's For Prime members only. Code is DOTSAVE10

Sorry I forgot to mention that that larger Echo is on sale too.
Code is ECHOSAVE40

Looks like it is time to wage war against Google Home. Cool, let's have a price war. They are always welcome.

I'd love to see GH come down $40. I'd buy another a heart beat. But they both need to get some self control or I'm going to put them in time-out ;) This speaking when not spoken to has gotten old.
-
Hmmm, so they BOTH do it, eh?
Maybe AI has a double meaning; AI = Artificial Idiot, or Absolute Ignoramus, or Always Insane etc.
-
Yep, they both do it.

local lowes had the gh for 119 including tax :-)

I got my GH at BB for $114 a couple of weeks ago. Actually my sweet sister bought it for me :) But if it were to drop in price by $40 like Echo just did for Prime members, I'd purchase another one. It's back up to $129 now.

Pretty much this. My next talkie speaker will be by Google or Apple. I'm disappointed Amazon, instead of improving their music selection as part of prime, decided to try to get me on their subscription service. Nope. Amazon is slowly driving me away. The sales tax collected and that stupid banner at the top of the Alexa app may be the last straws.
I can get the same shipping from Walmart.com now, same prices, and subscribe to Google Music instead.

I have done some reading this last week (Staycation week) and read that apple is supposed to actually introduce something this week, that competes... Keep your eyes and ears open. The World Wide Developer conference is 6-5 thru 6-9 and is supposed to open up some new tech and software development news... some of it pretty big this time, I am reading... but hype happens... so we'll see.

Google Home is my new favorite AI. Apple anything is against my religion.

I'm not religious about tech. I just use what works for my purposes and costs the least.
I'll be surprised if what Apple puts out doesn't suck though.

>>> I'll be surprised if what Apple puts out doesn't suck though.
Not necessarily, although it will likely cost more. On the otherhand, if Microsoft releases an AI device, it may very well, "suck".

WOW! That *is* a damn good deal right there... for both products. Good on you!

I have a banner on Amazon showing the Dot on sale for $39.99
I just do not need another one currently. Although one of these sale I will get a bunch for gifting.

I'd put one under the patio on the picnic table if I thought it would be ok. It wouldn't get rained on but I don't know if the 100+ degree heat, humidity and airborne particles (dust, dirt, pollen, etc) would hurt it.

perfect spot for a wasp to build a nest.

On top of a Dot? Those buggers are usually in a corner somewhere just waiting on me to walk out the door :(
