Octocopter Air Prime Delivery by Amazon on 60 Minutes


This sure lit up the interwebs.

 

 

Score a big win for Bezos for opening this topic to discussion, not just for Amazon delivery, or Christmas time PR fluff, but just in general. It promises to be a huge, no ... maybe more like monumental leap in technology and industry.

There seems to be a lot of naysayers and  others who for whatever reasons express a desire to shoot down any drone they see. Yeah, that'll help the gun laws, eh? haha.

But to the point, Moore's Law and the forces of commerce are much stronger and persistent than whatever obstacles or impediments there may be now.

I see that Amazon drone thing was on it's way out until Donahoe made his rebuttal.

Another thing I'm seeing, in those articles, they mostly only quote Donahoe, and embed the Amazon drone video.
