Интересное про то, зачем амазону понадобилось релизить аж 70 девайсов с поддержкой Алексы:

“Amazon is using another tried and true industry strategy employed by Intel, Microsoft and other ODM’s that has been used for decades. These folks have a core technology that they want to get into the hands of more people. In Intel’s case, it was their CPU’s. In Microsoft’s case, it was their OS and specific software apps. For both, they needed to broaden the types of devices that could use their products and thus began creating what we in the industry call reference designs.

Although Amazon does believe they can sell all of the new products they have created and earn some revenue from them, their real goal is to push third-party hardware vendors to develop similar products and broaden the base of devices that support Alexa and in turn accelerate the number of products that feed into their overall services model.”
