According to Bezos, the device, called 'Prime Air', can carry up to 2.3kg (86 percent of the merchandise sold through Amazon). , after 30 minutes of order, customers can pick up products right in front of their home.

When led by Bezos to the Prime Air gallery, CBS reporters did not hide the surprise. The director of Amazon even quizzed reporters that if anyone could guess what the other device was, I was willing to move half of my assets. Chief correspondent Charlie Rose said , "I just do not know what the device is for. It looks like something in the stories of famous science fiction writer Philip K. Dwick.
