OK, it's not a 'deal' but finally after what seems like forever since it came out in the USA the all new more powerful FireTV stick with full Alexa comes to Amazon UK!
It's sometimes referred to as the Fire TV Stick '2' by reviewers and bloggers when it came out in the USA last year as it's the 2nd generation of the FireTV stick but it's not actually called that by Amazon, they just call it the "all new Fire TV stick".
Pre-order now, says launching on April 6th but that might change and become earlier.
I'll be getting one or two of them because after using the FireTV 2 (box) I sometimes find my original FireTV stick slow and laggy. The new stick will be somewhat closer to the experience on the Fire TV 2 box.
It's not 4K but that's not important to me as I'm no longer blessed with 20:20 vision and never sit close enough to the TV to be able to tell the difference between HD and 4K anyway! Also, here in Cyprus, 4K normally refers to the average monthly salary of civil servants, or the average annual salary of someone working in the private sector!

Well, you'd know all about no deals given the fact you haven't posted one since you've been here. Next!

I think the title should be changed from "All New Fire TV Stick 2" to "All-New Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote - Pre-Order £39.99 @ Amazon"
There isn't a Fire TV Stick 2. Just going by what is on the actual product page so thought the title could be adjusted.

Can't see that this is a major leap forward from the current FireTV Stick!

I got 2 from the states on black Friday when they were $25 it's quicker to move around the amazon home screen menu and they've changed the interface of the home screen but I don't find any difference in the actual video playback.
