Could someone elaborate on what the use cases would be for something like this? I understand it will carry small items you buy off Amazon prime but that can't be the end of the roadmap for drone based delivery, can it?

walgreens has ~10,000 locations of ~10,000 square feet of products that are overwhelmingly under 5lbs and does ~20B/year in revenue.

whoever solves drone delivery will disrupt the convenience store market. its right there in the name.

How small? Most of my Amazon shipments could be carried by such drone.
