On improving shop-bots for books:

The point was made that Borders was able to deliver books right
away, while Amazon had to back order them. I nice addition to
acses.com (apart from changing its name to something
that is easier to remember) would be to sort by delivery time,
and to take into account the probable delay in shipment.

To Amazon's credit, they do at least tell the customer when they
order what the probable deley will be.
