Private Beta is by invite. THIS thread is for wannabe Echo Private Beta testers due to the popularity and maybe people think there might be a freebie or cheap Echo in it.
One thing is most likely. If you aren't registered for Beta it would seem very unlikely you would be invited to a Private Beta

The reality is there is no way to know, unless you are in one, if there is a Private Beta on-going as once you are in you don't talk about it. AT ALL.

Hey Ryan. I hear that some invites are going out for 7.3 with Alexa control. I'd like to be on that list.

Seeing as the Private Betas are covered by legally binding NDAs even to the extent that the existence of the Private Beta is covered I'm guessing you've just demonstrated that, given you are willing to spread internet gossip, you aren't realty the "sort" they are looking for.

Just kind of curious. Are you born an asshole or did that happen after some trauma? I asked a question, not your opinion on who should be in a private beta.

As blunt as Stuart_W can be, he does have a point. I'm sure that if Sonos is currently doing a private beta, they'll have no lack of volunteers. Giving their insistence on private betas being, well . . . private, one way to pare down the field is to eliminate those who seem hell bent on discussing them in public.

SONOS and TRNTBL by VNYL: Any recent updates on connecting the TRNTBL turntable to SONOS. Product mentioned in the Wall St Journal a few days ago? Or, might the topic have already been started in a different question ?
