December 2, 201312 yr If you didn't see it on 60 Minutes last night, Amazon unveiled their secret R&D project aimed at delivering packages to your doorstep by "octocopter". Amazon says the goal of this new delivery system is to get packages into customers hands in 30 minutes or less using unmanned aerial vehicles. [video=youtube_share;98BIu9dpwHU]
December 2, 201312 yr Nothing beats the FedEx guy!!! Yeah but the FedEx guys not as COOL as the OctoCopter! :no:
December 2, 201312 yr It's a cool idea but I just can't see this ever working.... I wonder how many times in the last 200 years that's been said.
December 3, 201312 yr I give it 2 years & it will be available to make deliveries. The technology is there but the regulations need to be worked out. I bet it was scary when mail went from horseback to mail trucks.
December 3, 201312 yr I wonder how many times in the last 200 years that's been said. These are my sentiments as well. It's the type of ambition that leads to innovation. It might not go exactly as this video demonstrates, but this assumption that the status quo will exist in perpetuity was shared by businesses like Blockbuster.
