If you have missed the Prime day deal for Echo Gen 2 Show 8 for $99, you could still get it for a 50 cents dearer price which is $99.50 at Bunnings. However, it is on special order. Once purchased, you will need to pick up from your nominated store within a week or two depending on your state. Both Charcoal and Glacier White are available. Currently it is $149 on amazon AU.

Has anyone upgraded from gen1 and use it as a bedside speaker and noticed its brighter at night than a gen1?
