Shopify Fulfillment Network - new opportunity?

Hi there,
I'm an Amazon FBA seller myself, but never used the Shopify platform. Just last week, Shopify introduced its new Fulfillment network:

This smells like opportunity. All the Amazon software used for Amazon FBA sellers can potentially be converted into Shopify apps. I checked out the existing API however, and it seems that there's already built-in support for fulfillment in the near future? Not sure. This is what I'm talking about:

My question is - do you have any ideas for software to create for the new Shopify network that you're willing to share? Would be interested to get into it.
Thanks :)
I know little about the fulfillment space but follow Shopify closely and had the same thoughts when they announced this. If there are software products that do well in Amazon FBA I imagine there would be some good opportunities in the Shopify realm soon.
There will be obvious competition thinking the same thing (current Amazon FBA app suppliers, Shopify Partners, etc), but if you get something useful out there quickly you could definitely benefit from being a first mover
Interested to hear what others think would be good opportunities here
What is futuristic fulfillment?
Mistake of a non-native English speaker :P
"fulfillment in the near future" makes more sense now.
