I've picked up an Echo Dot a few years ago when Amazon were practically giving them away, thinking that surely someone would have jailbroken it by now to allow it to be used with Home Assistant.

It was only after researching later that I discovered that this wasn't currently possible and recommended approach was to buy some replacement internals that cost more than the device itself (and if I recall correctly, more than the new Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition).
