How is it going with “Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition”? (self.homeassistant)

For those of us still impatiently waiting, what is your experience so far with “Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition”?

—- I ordered just 2 hours in but the vendor I used sold out in 21 minutes. I just found out I also missed the restock, so hopefully some time next month.

Tagging in on this too, I'm wondering what speaker people are combining this with for music streaming. I've heard on the early reviews that the speaker is fine for assisting, but not great for music

I really want to see if someone comes out with a dock which has a better speaker. Something you can just pop the voice preview hardware on top of would be nice

Same or even if it makes sense (which honestly I think it absolutely does) at least have an option maybe after the preview edition to have one with a better speaker built in for more cost or something. Keep one as is if you only need the voice assistant, but one one be $20-40 more or something if you plan on using it for music too

I'm pretty sure that's their plan tbh but damn it I don't wanna wait! Lol

Same! I ordered one is the previews, but will definitely get others if they add those
