Amazon Lockers Removed From Staples And RadioShack Stores

There is this particular saying, keep your friends close, and your enemies, closer. I suppose that makes sense since it would bode you well to know just what the heck is your nemesis up to. However, the folks over at Staples as well as RadioShack decided otherwise – and with good sense, too, to remove all Amazon Lockers that are currently placed in their stores. It does amaze me as to why no one thought about this before, not to place Amazon Lockers, one of your toughest competitors in the market, within the confines of your own stores.

Verizon gives us more details on Nexus 7 (2013) LTE certification process, says testing almost complete

Yesterday, the internet was in a tizzy over Verizon's refusal to activate the newly purchased Nexus 7 (2013) LTEs on their network. For many, this didn't make much sense on the surface (especially given the deal they made with the FCC in which they promised “open access” to their 700MHz spectrum), but Verizon has taken to their blog to help clear the air. First up, while the Nexus 7 LTE isn't currently “Verizon certified”, the device was entered into Verizon's certification process back in August.
