Amazon’s delivery lockers emerge from stealth mode

http://www.geekwire.com/2012/amazon-...ode-paint-job/



Quote:
Amazon Lockers were practically incognito when the company began testing the concept in Seattle last year. The nondescript beige lockers showed up quietly in 7-Elevens and other locations, and they were available as a delivery option for only a subset of the company’s customers.

Good idea. 7-Elevens open 24 hours a day. It's for people who don't want the packages deliver to home or work.

7-Elevens get some monthly fee from Amazon for the "space occupied" and get foot traffic from Amazon customers.

p.s. Just found a youtube video. Someone testing it out.

Interesting and potentially useful, especially if you're having something valuable and stealable delivered. It'll be interesting to see if they ever make here to Podunk, Ohio.
