It seems like Alexa - Amazon's AI assistant that's found a home in the Echo wireless speaker - is becoming the talk of the town at CES in Las Vegas. Jam Audio is the latest brand to announce a range of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled speakers with the Alexa voice assistant built in.
The speakers come in a range of shapes and sizes; there's the Session (pictured, above right), which is waterproof, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi compatible, and costs $250 (approximately £200).
It's joined by the Note (pictured, above left), a smaller speaker, priced at $120 (approximately £98). Both of these will be shipping in Spring 2017.
In the middle is the Bluetooth-connected Jam Transit 2.0, which stands out for not having a robot assistant built into it. We're guessing from the name that it's portable, too.
