Amazon Unveils One-Hour Delivery Service
Wouldn't four hours or anything same day be just as good? Why not save some costs there?

I think most purchases break down into "I need it now" vs. "I need it in a day or two." Currently, Amazon can't get the first category, so it's served by local stores. And four-hour or same-day delivery doesn't really address that market either.

Actaully, I often need something "before tomorrow". Unless I wait until 9PM to realize that, a four-hour delivery time would be perfect for me.
