Amazon Launches Buttons for Instant Product Ordering

It's 2 a.m. and you're changing your baby when you realize you've just used up your last diaper. Or you go to reach under your sink to grab another roll of toilet paper only to discover you've forgotten to order more. This isn't the sad, black-and-white world of late-night infomercials, but real life, Amazon.com says. The company is rolling out new hardware called the Dash button that promises to solve these scenarios. It's a small physical button that you can stick wherever, and press when you want to order more of something.
