What's the big deal about this? Unless your data plan is your only access (i.e. you don't have broadband/cable).

Ever tried pushing the "on" button on your TV/Cable remote? Works for me every time.I like the fact that Vizio keeps updating their TVs. I'm currently using a Harmony Hub for my entertainment system.
I walk into my office and say "Alexa, turn on TV" and my TV, Receiver and Cable Box come to life. I can then say "Alexa, turn on Apple TV" and it switches input and wakes my Apple TV. Best of all, I can use its remote instead of the horrible Apple remote.
It seems like over time that good vendors like Vizio, help to simplify the process. It would be nice to have all that functionality handled by the equipment itself via Alexa.
