Just As I Predicted
Ha! I was just joking a few months ago when I “exposed” Amazon’s secret plan to take on Apple and Google. But The Verge reported that Amazon is bringing the features of the Echo Show to their tablets.
Enabling these kinds of features on the tablets makes sense, as both of them already have hands-free access to Alexa and many of the same Amazon software services as the Echo Show. You can view song lyrics, read recipes, watch news bulletins, set timers, or pull up Amazon Prime Video content on the tablets in a hands-free interface that mirrors what you get on the Echo Show. Putting the tablet on the dock will automatically launch Show Mode, taking it off reverts it back to the standard Fire tablet interface. –Dan Seifert, The Verge
Just as I predicted last year.
Step 1 – Get into consumer’s homes with an always-on listening cylinder
Step 2 – Add a 7” screen to make video calling possible
Step 3 – Make it thinner and give it an all-day battery so that it’s portable.
Step 4 – Add a small pocket-sized version with cellular so that you can take it with you out of the house.
