I've said it before, I'll say it again: don't be surprised to wake up one day to the news that Amazon has merged with UPS.

It makes perfect sense.
Both companies are focused on logistics and have extensive B2B operations--UPS in the physical world and Amazon in the online world.

(At a minimum, expect a tight partnership. It's not as if Amazon does *eveything* themselves; they are not adverse to subcontracting out when it makes sense.)
