business news in context, analysis with attitude

• Published reports say that Minnesota pure-play e-grocery retailer SimonDelivers.com has launched a new service allowing customers to place orders using wireless phones and PDAs.
KC's View:
This seems revolutionary at the moment, but it’s just because SimonDelivers is ahead of the curve…a bit. This kind of accessibility and mobile interactivity is going to be standard operating procedure for any food retailer with an e-commerce platform…which is to say, any retailer that wants to stay in business during the early days of the 21st century.
