Anyone know about the Amazon Echo?

Does it still work if you're pissed?

Christmas is coming, and perhaps a few drinks maybe consumed over the period. Can it understand "Alexsha, [hic] turn the lightshhh off", or any sweary equivalent?

This could be a deal breaker.

[woohoo]

Pished, Annoyed and excited all tested ok. You do need a couple of retrys if you talk too fast

Have a look at the app on your phone and it will show you what it heard you say.

Simply ask Alexa, "What's on my Shopping List?" to receive an email of your entire list. You can send it to yourself, and up to four others. Perfect when you're running out the door.

[woohoo]

I do have have a problem with my DOT, its connected to an external speaker using an audio cable. But the speaker itself goes into standby mode and Alexa does not switch back to its internal speaker. Funnily enough if I set an alarm it seems to stop the speaker going into standby mode (at least I think it does).
