Amazon Results

"Amazon.com, Inc., today announced that the 2005 holiday season finished as its
best ever,
with the company's surpassing 108 million items ordered for the first time. The
2005 holiday
season also brought another single-day record with more than 3.6 million items
ordered, or
41 items per second, on Dec. 12th."

***
The 12th was the second Monday before Christmas, the third Monday after
Thanksgiving...
something to study... is this a pattern? Of course the biggest day for face2face
retail is the
day after thanksgiving... as more sales migrate to the 'net, will timing of
shipments from
sources be altered?

What other implications?
