GE and Amazon have developed the “C”, a lamp and clock that is Alexa enabled. It has visual indicators for time on the ring where hands would go, a sleep enabled light with warm colors at night and cool colors in the morning, and tunable light controllable by voice commands for home and office environments. Normal Alexa functions will be available so there is no need for a stand alone Echo device.
The C is expected to ship in September and will retail for $199. You can receive a 20% by signing up for the Sol Early Adopter program.

It would appear that our AI overlords are going to come in a form closer to “the eye of sauron” vs the terminator. I would like to welcome our all seeing and knowing overlords.
All kidding aside, I love Alexa and that is a very pretty lamp.
Camera coming next …
