To me it is just one more layer of an user interface. We went from a keyboard to a GUI front end to now a voice activated one. Echo doesn't do anything that you couldn't do prior.
I do think it would be very useful for my DW that is having a hard time keeping up with technology. It's a slick interface to the web for sure.
