** Amazon's Echo Show starts shipping today, June 28, 2017, and you can order yours now. **
Amazon has just released the latest member of the Amazon Echo family: Echo Show.
The only Echo product with a screen, the Show is can do everything a traditional Amazon Echo can and more.
Voice queries show up on the Show's screen, so you'll be able to read Alexa's responses and search for errors.
You'll also be able to watch YouTube clips and connect to other Echo Show owners via video chat through its built-in camera.
Through a new mode called "Glance" video clips from news sources like CNN can be hailed using your voice, the same way audio news briefings can be played through a traditional Echo.
The video screen can also be used in conjunction with Alexa-compatible cameras, enabling the Echo Show to display a live video feed.
Amazon has built two speakers into the Echo Show, so this will likely be the best Echo device for listening to music. Pandora, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and Tunein are all supported, and the Echo Show can display lyrics for the current song on its screen while listening.
More details are sure to emerge over time, but if you're interested in this product you'd better act fast.
The original Echo was backordered for months after its initial launch, but the Show is still available right now (although it probably wont be for long), so grab one while you can.
