Google have launched their Echo rival (along with a bunch of other stuff)
This video explains not a lot but looks nice:
Google Home will be interesting. Should sound a fair bit better than the Echo but not the Sonos 1, never mind 3 or 5. Also has the big advantage of multi room audio. Will be interesting to see if they create an equivalent of the Dot to allow other speakers into its ecosystem.
I am looking forward to the Sonos beta for Echo though.

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..
Good grief, Penfold. I thought we'd seen the last of those...

Probably about a decade ago I was flogging books and gifts and got landed with some cheaper clone of this.
May have been a tee hee the first couple of times you saw one but drive round a van full all week for a couple of months and they provoke a previously unreached level of violence.
More than several were returned unservicable.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was.
Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary
Here's I tear down of Google home speaker
"Google Home costs $50 less than Amazon Echo because it's made of older, cheaper parts"

Goodness has nothing to do with it.
Somewhere someone is already working on the 'adult' version.
