On Monday, I posted that Amazon had most of their Echo and Kindle devices on sale. Today, Amazon .com is showing the both the black and white versions on the Echo are now showing as currently unavailable:

Note that the page says that “We don’t know when or if this item will be back in stock.” While this is boilerplate language for many out of stock items on Amazon, this may lend some credence to the idea that Amazon is clearing out the original Echo for a generation 2 device.

Interesting! I am ready for a generation 2 Echo! What about you?
