Jeff Bezos has said that Amazon will be opening more bricks and mortar stores, although he didn't elaborate further.

One theory behind this might be the idea of drone deliveries from the local stores.

Er... okay. Hope the research into the actual cost of a B&M and attendant employees and costs thereof, has been calculated. As for drone deliveries, that's a nightmare of different proportions as (if you think about it) interception and theft of product will also include the drone!

There comes a point where automation ends and humans begin.

Bezos is nuts. I can't even believe they're still talking about the whole drone thing. I think people reach a point where they're so rich, that they lose all sense of reality.
