alex webb joins us now. strong showing for a group of leaders, many of whom are quite vocal in their opposition to president trump during the election. >> as toluse raised, it's important for them to have a dialogue with the president. there are issues that are very important to their businesses. for some, it's the immigration question. for some, it's the offshore ability to recapture it money at a lower tax rate -- to repatriate money at a lower tax rate. when these issues come to the table, they hope they can steer it in an amenable direction for their business. emily: i spoke to tim cook a couple weeks ago about why he didn't join the council officially. take a listen to what he had to say. tim: i don't find these councils, in general, and committees to be terribly productive. but it wasn't about not wanting to advise on something where i thought that, you know, we could help or we had a point of view that should be heard. so, i'm doing the latter. i can't imagine a situation where i wouldn't do the latte

joining me, alex webb. what do we know? alex: we know this is in production. company has started making these things. there's a good chance it will be unveiled next week, ready to be introduced to the market, to actually be put on sale later in the year. it is interesting given that amazon has just introduced their latest alexa with a screen, the alexa show, and we are hearing the apple product will not have a screen. it is solely a speaker. that is clearly a slight difference. emily: there are some interesting details you guys have found in terms of what might set this apart when it comes to the sound and its ability to understand what's going on in a room. tell me about that. alex: that's the differentiator it seems apple is hoping to make. amazon and google have these well-established products. apple clearly seems to think that having a better quality speaker will give them an edge. there are things like surroundsound, which is beamed out from the device, and an ability to follow the shape of a room and therefore adjust the acoustic performance accordingly.
