TheFallenAngel Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 So, we got fracked again eh.. Here is what Amazon Support had to say in the subject: "Hello Alex, I understand your concern about Canada not being included in the places where the new Echo Devices are being launched. I'd like to tell you that, Alexa's voice recognition is processed by the cloud rather than by a local device. Alexa responds immediately to our voice requests, because she functions through the Amazon Web Services cloud network to route voice requests to the closest server that answers the fastest. As our customers had written to us about device availability in countries outside the U.S., our Technical Team had come up with the best possible locations where Amazon Web Services can be utilized efficiently by Alexa. Currently, UK and Germany were determined as the places where Alexa's functionality can be at its best. However, our Development Team is looking into making Alexa's services available in several places outside the U.S. I've forwarded your concern to our Development Team. They'll look into this and take the necessary action." Cheers, Alex Link to comment
larryllix Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Alexa has to understand and speak 50% French words to be allowed into Canada. N'est ce pas? Link to comment

And I guess was easier to learn German that that French thing.. French was also the reason Cortana came to Canada several months later Cheers, Alex Link to comment
