hi Steve, Is it possible to setup the echo dot from the website, instead of the 
app?. I am having issues trying to setup my dot with the Alexa app, Billy

Hi Tony,

Not only usable from a laptop, but the webpage for it, 
http://alexa.amazon.co.uk,  works as well as or better than the smartphone apps.

I've only tried my Dot once away from home, on a public Wi-Fi system, and I 
couldn't connect to it. I was in a rush so maybe I was doing it wrong.

Alexa is built into the Dot. The whole point is there is no screen, so Alexa is 
the way the Dot communicates with you.

The Dot comes with TuneIn radio. I don't know how many stations that gives you 
access to, but their website, http://tunein.com/, should tell you.

Hi folk,

Thanks for the interesting and sometimes even amusing LOL posts here recently.

I don't have a smart phone but only a laptop and a netbook so I wonder are the 
Echo and Dot usable with them?

I wonder also as I have mobile broadband does the Echo/Dot work anywhere as 
long as I have my wi Fi enabledor say if out and about using other Wi FI?

Finally do I need to download Alexa or is it there by default and using the 
Echo or Dot have I then accessx to internet radio?

Best,

Tony Sweeney.?
