    What is currently stopping you from replacing them with something like Willow and a few ESP32-S3-BOX’s?

      Waiting for end to end support in HA with easy setup. I have been tracking progress and rhasspy but want to wait for all the components to work end to end.

      I have 5 rooms with Google minis in them I want to be fairly sure about the hardware before I commit hundreds to it. I might get one to play with.

      I looked into that before, and was willing to buy one to try it out. But I have not seen them for sale, everyone says sold out, besides some potentially sketchy AliExpress stores (including an official store that is different from the sold out one espressif themselves link to…)
