i can't imagine boston is seriously in the running. it's got high real estate prices, hardly any free land area to build a giant hq. (i think i heard it would be 2x the size of the pentagon)
also not a particularly cheap place to do business (high taxes). i also can't imagine the state/city giving them significant tax breaks to make it worthwhile as there are some cities seriously bending over backwards and then some to try to land amazon.
