Amazon Echo Hacks ?

Has anyone seen or heard of any hacks to the echo yet? Currently, I have my "personal assistant, Antonn" using Alexa. Key voice commands by him operate her when she can perform better than he can. My goal is a future Alexa voice change to male. I have seen some voice changes done on You Tube but they are beyond my skill level.

Has anyone heard of a voice service offering an Alexa's voice?

I think Alexa will be a great incorporation with an EZ-B in the future. Any opinions?

how did you add the jaw movement on Antonn to speak the Alexa response?

I use a Scary Terry board and set up 2 inputs to allow it to move the jaw.

@EzAng  the audio jack on alexa is output just get a 3.5mm phono plug double ended, plug one end into alexa the other end to a Scary Terry board and that is it, but you will have the alexa voice, I tried as per instructions but was unable to get Alexa to use a male voice.  I added a phone jack to Google not an easy job but google is easy to add a male voice, I find google better anyway as you don't have to keep using hay google if you keep talking it stays on. I am still working on how to change the wakeup command to the robots name instead of hay google. lots to do so little time.
