Verizon delays approval of Google Wallet, blesses own Isis payment app
http://j.mp/VgkluW (ars technica)
In an article posted this morning, DSLReports is alleging that Verizon
is acting anti-competitively in its delaying approval of Google's
phone-based Google Wallet mobile commerce application. The accusation
does indeed appear to be based solidly in reality-Verizon's competing
Isis mobile wallet system has been made available for a variety of
phones on different carriers, in spite of employing the same "secure
element" for data storage that has held up the Google Wallet app.
