It makes sense. A big DC could use the same robots that pack shipments to deliver goods direct to your door. One-hour delivery.
If they did this, then you could also get into renting items instead of purchasing them. Do you really need that big screen TV? Or could you just rent something a couple Saturdays each month? I could easily see a future where you're out by the pool and decide to have a party. Speaking a few commands into your smart phone, when you get home a couple hours later you have all sorts of things purchased/rented/installed and ready to go.
10 years out, maybe?
