So Who Here Will Rush To Buy . . .

[Buenchico]

They've got the design all wrong though, in my opinion. It ought to look like this:

I think I'll just check the cooker myself and spend £740 on beer.

[Buenchico]

Nah, Douglas!

£739 on beer and a quid on the crisps to go with it, surely?

[douglas9401]

Can't argue. :-)

[Buenchico]

Yes, one should never drink on an empty stomach ;-)

[Ellipsis]

I don't trust Amazon devices, let alone one that can roam around with a built in camera and microphone ...

[douglas9401]

Aye, I wonder how many people who jump up and down over ID cards and privacy will fork out to be first on their block to have one.

[Mamyalynne]

I'd just fall over it.

[pixie374]

I want one! Does it do cleaning too, though?

[pixie374]

Ellipsis, netflix can't even guess what films I like. Even though I tell them. Prime is a bit better.

[tiggerblue10]

Looks like Metal Mickey! Ha

[Mamyalynne]

It will bring your wine.

[Mamyalynne]

Unsure how it puts the bottle in the carrier mind ;-)

[Ellipsis]

Or opens a door or gets up a step. But you've sold me on the wine, Mamya!

[gulliver1]

19.52, Have they got one of these robots than can turn water into wine Mamya.

[Mamyalynne]

If they have, it's mine. Amen

[Tilly2]

Will it check if my dog is sleeping on the bed? Can it climb upstairs?

[pixie374]

Of course your dog is sleeping on the bed, tilly. Even i can tell you that :-)

[Tilly2]

Yes, Pixie, he's a naughty boy!

[Gromit]

It is an Amazon device and will violate your privacy as soon as it detects the front door closing.
It will rifle through your bank statements and bills.
It will find your credit cards and CVC numbers.
And order small size underpants while you are watching “A Question of Sport”.

[Mamyalynne]

I'm now worried - how does it know I wear small?
