When you shop at AmazonSmile, half a percent of your purchase price on eligible items goes to a non-profit you choose. It will feel just like shopping at Amazon: you’ll be using your same account.

I plan to do another post today, but I’m guessing some people have been anxiously awaiting my first experiences with the Echo and were counting on my estimated delivery date…
