Yeah it uses AI quite well. I am surprised how good it is and how as an information device it is now useable which the older was very poor with and that is why I kept a google nest hub max for voice searches. It is now sold

Re: Alexa+ Early Access now in the UK

We have a Ring Doorbell, but I will be getting rid of that at some point because Amazon refuses to allow you to access the footage from it without using their website.

I will keep it though if the bounty is claimed from Louis Rossmann and someone finds a way to access it without needing the "Scrypted" app on your pc.

Re: Alexa+ Early Access now in the UK

There should be links to it somewhere in Amazon if you have prime to sign up to it. My Dad got it today without even asking on his Show 8" 2nd Gen any new devices you buy now too automatically gets you in the trial as long as you have Prime

I am worried though about the price of Prime when it comes out as they say you get Alexa + free with Prime or can just get Alexa + for £19.99 a month. Now who is gonna do that if Prime stays £8.99 unless this is a ploy to get more Prime subscribers
