Is this really worth $50 more than the JBL Flip 3 just for Alexa? I feel like the portability of it would make Alexa unusable most of the time...

So this is basically Echo, but portable and not "always listening"? (You have to push a button to activate?)

pushing a button to activate? Are we back in 2010? ;) Jokes aside, the best feature of echo is that is always listening, if I have to push the button to ask something, it's easier for me to get my phone and search directly.

Wonder how it sounds? Cool to see the convergence of two worlds... makes sense. I wonder if alexa will be licensed out to speaker companies like Bose.

very surprised that this isn't always listening. 1) siri is always listening on newer iPhones, so not sure if I buy the "battery life" argument. 2) even if they wanted to save battery life, couldn't it at least be always listening when plugged-in?

So now with the Dot, Echo and Tap how do they stack up?

@joshdance This is what confuses me the most. The Echo is an Alexa-enabled portable speaker. The Dot is a smaller Alexa-enabled portable speaker. The Tap is... an Alexa-enabled portable speaker?

@joshdance The echo and the dot are the same except the echo has its own big speaker. The tap doesn't have the always-on listening and it's supposed to be portable.

@mvkel @joshdance Echo and Dot aren't portable, only Tap.

If this were always listening while charged it'd be a killer product. Unfortunately... I don't see it doing well as is.
