Amazon is updating its FireTV/Stick and Echo Smart Home Speaker ahead of the biggest US game of the year. The Fire TV Stick, which is also currently on sale $5 off for $34.99 shipped will stream audio to Bluetooth speakers (including the Echo) or headsets. Also, Alexa voice support will be pushed to first generation Fire TV and Fire TV Stick devices. Amazon will also push improvements to Amazon Video add-on subscription service, including an easier way to sign-up, discover and access your Amazon Video add-on subscriptions.
Since the launch of the new Fire TV in September, we've added dozens of Alexa skills to Fire TV devices including local search (i.e. the ability to find restaurants in your neighborhood), Amazon Choice and Re-Ordering from Amazon.com (i.e. quickly purchasing items off Amazon.com), home automation (i.e. turning on the living room lights via Alexa), traffic (i.e. find out how your commute to work is looking), Audible, games like Jeopardy!, Bingo, and more
Probably the coolest new feature, coming to Amazon's Echo Speaker, is that you can order pizza – you know, for the Superbowl – with your voice! From the couch! Without pulling out your phone!
Even better, NewEgg offers $5 off a $25 gift card via email delivery so you aren't going to be paying full price either. Head below for the details. Read more of this post
