Amazon is finally turning its Echo Show into a proper digital photo frame, but you have to pay extra for the privilege. Announced at its fall hardware event this week, the new Echo Show 8 Photos Edition costs $10 more than the standard edition of the new smart display but lets you make your photos the “primary home screen content.”
The Show 8 Photos Edition is coming this Fall for $159.99 and has all the same features as the new Echo Show 8 (third-gen). But for the extra $10, you get a six-month subscription to Amazon’s new PhotosPlus service, which enables this new “enhanced photo mode.”
Coincidentally, I was just reading an interview with Yanis Varoufakis about his new book Technofeudalism and how we are all serfs just paying rent. It seemed very appropriate for both topics.
I.switched to Ubuntu a while back and, barring the occasional issue, it has worked out well.
