Tigger97498 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 I was worried about this. I need a roku tv and it sounds like theres at least a possibility that they will only have deals on fire tvs.
Brad Posted September 28, 2020 Author Posted September 28, 2020 I was worried about this. I need a roku tv and it sounds like theres at least a possibility that they will only have deals on fire tvs.I wouldn't worry too much. This is how they do it every year - they are just spotlighting some early pre-Prime Day deals in this press release, most of which are their own products like the Fire TV-based TVs. It's not reflective of the actual deals to come on Prime Day. I had meetings every day last week with Amazon about PD. They have a lot in store for the sale this year (and BF). Definitely not "pretty meh"... 5
len_mullen Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 I was worried about this. I need a roku tv and it sounds like theres at least a possibility that they will only have deals on fire tvs. I'm keeping my eyes open for you. 1
Kash Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 I like the extra promo to help small businesses.
jesusluvu Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Im in, if it is just to support small businesses. I like that special touch and nod to the ones that suffer most from bigger stores.
len_mullen Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/24/21454117/amazon-new-echo-show-10-alexa-smart-display-moving-screen-price-specs-features Instead of being fixed in one position, as with every prior Echo Show model, the new Echo Show 10’s display is perched on a motorized base that swivels around automatically whenever you interact with the device. By using a blend of computer vision technology and echolocation (pun not intended), the Echo Show 10 can determine where you are in a room and swivel itself around to face you so you can always get a good view of the screen. I missed this in the release notes. Great for the kitchen. 1

Great for the kitchen.That is great, but scary as well.... Some Total Recall stuff
len_mullen Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Great in the kitchen, but I'd get a Show 8 or 5 with the mechanical shutter for the boudoir. 1
jesusluvu Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Great in the kitchen, but I'd get a Show 8 or 5 with the mechanical shutter for the boudoir.It would be a great help when I am cooking and trying to look back at a recipe or something. Or watching the game when it is my night to cook.
len_mullen Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Silly Sand starts out wet. Then it dries. Cats do not appreciate art. When your cat finds a pile of sand in the house, they do what they do when they find sand outside. Then they scatter it with their back legs. I was a little kid when Santa brought Silly Sand, but I remember how quickly it disappeared. (I don't remember what happened to that cat.) 1

dantegirl Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Does anyone know if Airpods Pro @ $219 is good or if I should wait? My brother is asking for these and Apple products are not something I usually purchase.

TerReuv Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 So, Amazon has the Shows on sale for Prime day. The 5 is $44.99 and the 8 is $64.99. Is this good or do you think Black Friday would be better? TIA.

Is this good or do you think Black Friday would be better? TIA. With the two sales being so close this year, I think most of their device deals will be the same for both.

Kash Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Is it me or ? I do not see that the Echo show 10 swivels, do I need a special base? Never mind, I see now it is the 3rd Gen that swivels. Just incase anybody else was interested in that specifically. Edited October 13, 2020 by Kash
