KD-55S8505C Are Alexa skills coming to the 2015 models any time soon?

Is there any update as to whether the Alexa Skills integration is coming to the 2015 Android TV models? Surely there cant be that much difference between the android services in the firmware to allow this to take place, especially since the alexa skill is basically just https posts to the TV in the same way that wifi remote apps on phone does?

Thanks

Probably not. But you won't miss much. And all I want are fixes for numerous USB bugs that were not present in lollypop build.

Owners of older models probably won't get new and fancy stuff like Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. But they will for sure get Samba TV so that Sony earns more money by spying on more people...
