Where to Buy...

Competition is hot right now, between these emerging home-delivery services.

• Webvan only delivers in the San Francisco area (a/o 24-Nov-99).  Our friends tell us it is excellent.

• NetGrocer ships via FedEx and, obviously, won't deliver perishables.
• Kozmo isn't really a grocery service, but will deliver ice cream. :-)
