Amazon Echo Auto GONE?

[jwlv]

I was searching for the Echo Auto on Amazon.com to see if they've updated when it's going to be available and to see whether I got an invitation to buy one. To my surprise, I can't find the Echo Auto any more. Did Amazon remove it completely? Did they scrap it altogether?

It still comes up for me both when I recall it from saved section of my cart and in Google search.

Thanks for the link. Strange that it doesn't come up when I searched for it.

It may have been offered up to some already, as I got a "Echo Auto Vent Mount" ad the other day... thought it was the unit and it was only the mount... disappointed again.

I bought from Amazon Digital Services LLC this product was a legit Amazon product
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074TC662N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
so this must be one, too.

I used google not amazons search  :-)  IMO, amazon searches are not that good when searching for a specific item.

Using Amazon search for "echo auto" went right to it:

It's only been month since visited this subject... has anyone found an invitation in their email yet? I am pretty much losing hope on this one.

[jwlv]

Nope. Still nothing. I have 2 requests (diff accounts) for invites and didn't get anything yet.

I saw an article a few months back, saying invites went out.  Which means only some people who signed up, got an invite. 

Not us.

Well... Tat six pretty hard... Hopefully the full marketed version is better than the Special invite ones after they work out the bugs...

 I just initiated a chat with Amazon.com rep about when I would get my invitation. I said I have been waiting forever and have several Alexa devices. He promised me that I would have an invitation at the end of April. 

[jwlv]

I'm still waiting for my invite. But I guess it didn't really make a big splash like I expected it to, otherwise the media and people would be talking more about it. There's practically no talk about it at all. I already use an Echo Dot in my car that's connected to my car's wifi. I think it's quite handy to have it especially when it's hooked up to my car stereo's bluetooth. Voice controlled streaming music in the car! I can't think of a better or more appropriate place to use this technology.

[Laurel]

Jwlv, I suspect the first people who have it by invitation are restricted from talking about it.  That is just a guess.  Something like beta testers for operating systems for cell phones.  I wondered why no comments from the first people who got the Echo Auto, and that is the only thing I can think of that makes sense.
