Amazon started its Amazon Prime Day promotion early - if you have Amazon Prime then go get the Amazon Prime Show with a US$100 discount, down to US$129 (YouShop required). Other products will be discounted over the next few days, with the main dates being 16 - 17 July (US time).

The Show is a fantastic device. We have it in the Kitchen. Sometimes I think our kids use it so much they might overload  the amazon cloud!

Not sure if I am opening myself up to misery, but if you are happy to pay me upfront, I am happy to order one for you and have it shipped here.

Look at the videos. I would pay $129 for something that would set alarms, timers and play music in my kitchen in a heart beat, it's capable of magnitudes more than that if you want to invest some time.

Can't you do that with an Echo anyway ?

 

Though I guess you do get a screen for only $30 extra.

$30 for the screen is completely worth it.

No youtube on them now, and the music video playback at least on the spot is a buggy mess that often just leaves a frozen player on the screen which does nothing.
