On Demand Pizza

OpenTV, a United Kindom based company / service in 2000 enabled Sky TV to order Domino's Pizza through your television. Korean's have gotten into the game as well. SkyLife is a new service starting April 11th that does virtually the same thing, ordering Pizza without leaving your chair. Viewers can search the menu and place their order using their remote control.

"Orders are then sent to the outlet nearest the viewer's home, which makes the delivery, who will only have to get up to open the door. Registered users with a two-way receiver can use the service for free. SkyLife broadcasting director Lee Hueng-joo said the service rang in the era of "T-commerce." "We plan to soon include other products like chicken and Chinese food," he added. Viewers ordering via TV will get a 10 percent discount on Domino's pizzas. "

Man..is this nuts? can we be any lazier than we already are? Will this suceed? I know the online grocery shopping hasn't taken off, but this is just about the same as picking up the phone and ordering, I don't really see the need, but hey, if you are first in the market, the skies the limit.
