How long until Amazon.com ordering gets integrated into this?
For the sake of convenience, I've been shifting more and more of my shopping for "basics" like razors and toilet paper to Amazon, so they have know what brands I use. Pretty soon I'm sure I would be able to have an exchange just like this with Echo:
"Alexa, can you order me more razor blades?"
"Would you like to order 10-pack Gillette Fusion ProGlide razor blades for deliver tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"Your order has been placed."
This seems like exactly what Amazon has been driving towards: lowering the friction involved in making a purchase to the point where you only need to utter two sentences at the moment you think about wanting or needing something. You don't even need to reach for you laptop or smartphone.

- methehack 12y agoGood idea. I'm sure it's on the roadmap. Plus, I would use that. You're on the john and out of toilet paper. "Alexa, order my 10 rolls of Scott Brand toilet paper." Then, you just wait... Maybe the drone can even drop it through the window... Anyway, all kidding aside: I like the product, and would probably even use the ordering and I don't really see a problem with that at all.
