Glenn,

E-commerce is hurtling towards a brutal price war. Winning/surviving it will require a superb supply-chain infrastructure (broadly defined), good access to capital, shrewd management, and low customer acquisition costs. Most people agree that Amazon is well-positioned on these fronts. Also, I suspect Amazon's core customer base (yuppie baby boomers) is less price-sensitive than most, which is a nice edge to have in a price war.

All that being said, I worry that the stock price doesn't adequately discount execution risk. It is WAY too nice outside for me to stay in front of this computer, but I will try and post more on that tonight.

Cheers,

Ganesh
