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.

If you have a sub to HA Cloud, you should be able to use their Cloud Voice service. I find that's less than a second of latency on any commands I give my Voice assist.

My point was just that I guess I trust NC with that, but I wouldn't do the same with the other two. But I'm still moving to local when I get sufficient hardware to equal that latency.
