Amazon is setting up huge distribution centers across the nation to shorten the distance between online shoppers and the stuff they want. Amazon wants to get their inventory as close as possible to as many people as possible.

Even though Amazon is already fast and this may not increase the speed of their shipments significantly, their establishment in Ca. will reap benefits of increased revenue, satifies customers and new jobs for the town that will make this move worth it.

This is a great concept to help make Amazon's business faster than their competitors. This business strategy not only helps the company but it will also provide jobs.

Amazon will only increase their revenues by doing this. More users will choose Amazon for their fast turn around time.

this is a great reaction to Wal-Mart's recently added 2 day shipping policy considering the threat Wal-Mart's presence in the online market would have on Amazon's dominant position

Although it is great for current customers by decreasing their wait time, with all the technology out there such as the kindle, iPad, nook ,etc I wonder if in a few years from now people will be using amazon. Amazon is already fast this might be a waste.

Amazon's company provides important resources for many people. The fact that Amazon would be able to get their inventory to their customers in a shorter amount of time is very useful. Their customers will only be more satisfied with the company of Amazon.
