Amazon has announced that select Amazon Echo devices, as well as their Music Unlimited streaming service, will be headed to Australia and New Zealand next month. Customers can place a pre-order for the Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, or Echo Plus starting today. The Amazon Echo is $119 AUD (~$95 USD), the Echo Dot is $49 AUD (~$39 USD), and the Echo Plus is $199 AUD (~$159 USD). All three will be released on February 1st.
Also arriving on the same day is Amazon’s Music Unlimited streaming service. Like in other countries, it will be available in three plan options. $4.99 AUD per month grants streaming access to over 45 million songs on a single Echo, Echo Dot or Echo Plus. The Individual Plan for multiple devices and mobile streaming is $11.99 AUD per month, while the Family Plan, which will be available later, will be $17.99 AUD per month for up to six members of a household to share. New subscribers will get a 90-day free trial.

Despite the fact that this blog post addresses and entire continent (plus and almost-country), it would have never received any comments unless I made one.
So I did.
Ironically, the comment was flagged by my spam filter and held for approval.
Giday Mate!
Looking forward to getting more out of my FireTV in NZ!
But just tried to order an Echo – still not shipping to NZ? “Sorry, this item can’t be delivered to your selected address.”
