Here is a snippet from that piece:
...
Dash is a portable wand-shaped device that allows users to automatically add items to their AmazonFresh shopping lists. Customers can scan items with the gadget, or speak them into a microphone for voice-based search. It reportedly recognizes more than 1 million items for sale on AmazonFresh and Amazon.com.
The idea is as soon as a consumer runs out of a replenishable item, like a gallon of milk or box of cereal, they use Dash to automatically enter it on their AmazonFresh shopping list, eliminating the need to go to the store to replace it. Take a moment to digest what this potentially means to paradigm of shopping for consumer goods and then read on.
What do you think?
The biggest problem Amazon.com has is the lack of physical stores. This is a brilliant way to get around that. This 'magic wand' turns your home in to a store.
Very interesting.
Immediately I have to think there will be issues with the 'wand'. Lose one? What do you do? Why isn't this functionality merely an app on your smart phone? Is it to provide Amazon.com with a controlled environment during these early days?
The world is changing fast isn't it?
