Just had a demo - works as expected!
To be released in september.
It is a hardware revison - so kind of new product.
The ‘old’ version will be available too.

I have this on my Pentas 😎
Perfect timing. I had just been contemplating replacing my kitchen BeoSound 1 with a BeoSound 2 for sound from my kitchen TV/BeoSystem 3 -- since the BeoSound 1 has no line-in.
Just for you Jeff :)I wonder if the circle of dots is functional or just the google branding (same as the lights on their speakers ) ?

From B&O's press release : Both have five microphones to listen to your voice commands with a control panel on top to let you swipe for next or previous tracks, turn it to adjust the volume plus four buttons you can program to launch things like calendar, weather, radio, music playlists via Google Assistant compatible services.
‘I wonder if the circle of dots is functional’
The ‘dots’ wil be used for presets (like those on a BROne) later on.

Thanks MBee & MMThat’s really useful functionality Nice that it is consistent with the remote’s usage design
Again the obvious route, Khimo works with Crestron, Control4 and Alexa. Alexa is miles ahead in home automation. Google assistant works with Sonos so it would have been nice if this one would interact with Alexa.Are there any plans to integrate Alexa?
@chucky: what’s better in Alexa concerning home automation? Only Crestron compatibility or more?
