A more general reaction: there are a ton of concerns for this sort of undertaking, but I always like it when modern technology is finally adopted into common processes. I worry a bit about smaller brick-and-mortar stores suffering as a result of something this advanced and convenient, but it wouldn't be the first time that they've had to adapt. |

I could have a standing order every week of all the items I need, and a drone drops the package off automatically, they bill my debit card, boom. Shopping done. Maybe I could even ask for it to show up Saturday morning so I'm sure I will be home. |

@ all the naysayers.
If innovation were left up to most of you we'd still be using horse & buggy for transport. Double @ all the "they took err jobz" fanatics. New technology creates more jobs than it replaces.

this is so far from being reality, any discussion of it now is pure marketing.
