Getting a head start for newly purchased Echo

Just ordered Echo and wanted to get a head start before it arrived. Feel much more confident about setting up and using the Echo.

Useful guide for a power platform

Would you consider the audio edition of Amazon Echo to be better than the print version?

What I really like about this read was that it taught me how to set up Alexa as my virtual assistant. I learned how to set up Bluetooth and voice commands. I am new to Echo and the whole concept of virtual assistants but this clarified what I was confused about. It seems like a powerful platform and this was a very helpful user guide.

Comprehensive guide

What did you love best about Amazon Echo?

This book is so comprehensive about all the cool things that the Echo can do, it should have been included in the box along with the Echo! The author even includes troubleshooting tips. I recommend this book to anyone who is even considering purchasing the Echo. You cannot go wrong with this book. It's written in an easy, straightforward manner and is catered toward those of us who are not technophiles.

This book is a primer

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This fine book covers the set-up, usage and troubleshooting involved with owning an Amazon Echo. It is a view into the future - a view into voice commanded devices that control other devices that you own. Along with this it answers questions, plays music and controls a variety of devices that will expand over time. The book is a primer about this device, set-up options, and especially helpful is the trouble shooting section of the book.

Informative but was hoping for more

Offers pretty basic information. I was just hoping for a little more information. Very easy to follow along with and narrator was easy to listen to.

Just the way I like

What did you love best about Amazon Echo?

This was a really informative book about Amazon Echo. It's new to me and I was looking for a good guide to it. This was a good one. Alexa is the future, it would seem. Everything is explained in a clear, straight-forward and easy to understand way, just the way I like.
