Smart Gadgets with Pete Sipple

I was joined in the studio by local gadget guru, Pete Sipple and he brought 2 very useful devices with him: One to help automate your life, solve your child’s homework woes as well as order a pizza and tell you a joke – plus a simple device to make your television “smart”.

We first looked at Amazon’s Echo, featuring the Alexa voice – quite addictive!

The second item was the Fire TV stick, also an Amazon product – this enables your TV to go “smart” by giving it internet connectivity, so allows you to watch YouTube on your main screen and simply plugs into a spare HDMI port.

If you missed our previous chat with Pete, he talked about internet safety for you and the family including how to regulate your child’s internet access.  You can hear that on this page.
