Order pizza and request Ubers ~with your voice~.
You may have heard of an insanely well-reviewed device called the Amazon Echo, which has a personal assistant called Alexa and a speaker built-in.

Well, unless you live in a super tiny studio, the speaker component of the Echo is kinda... meh.
At loud volumes, the audio starts to sound muddy.

Well, Amazon just announced a new device, the Echo Dot, that lets you put the intelligence of Alexa into *any* speaker.
It's a HUGE deal for people who use Alexa to play a lot of music.

The hockey-sized puck costs $90 and can do anything its big sis, the Echo, can do.
Like recognize your voice from across the room, turn on your lights, etc.
