H James-what I am saying is that AMZN is planning well for the future and is sidestepping the stocking and delivery problems that some of the other etailers are subjecting themselves to.As far as your Webvan question....an automated warehouse does not a successful company, make. Webvan may make it, I don't know, I don't follow them. Homegrocer.com seems to me making great inroads here in Seattle.

Basically my point is that AMZN has the infrastructure to handle their growth. Once the holiday season numbers are in, I think we will see just how strong Amazon is.

Happy Holidays, I am outta here for a few days in the AM. Scott

>He said that the automated warehouses were operating at no more than 20% of capacity.
So Scott, are you suggesting that we could see Amzn appreciate another 80% next year?
If you like automated warehouses how come WebVan is not on fire?

If I understand this correctly, we are stating that 80% of the distribution centers are being wasted. That is really sad from a business point of view.
