Google's Sundar Pachai announces Android Wear and a line of Google Smart Watches that will be coming out soon.  Although the Google Watches look infinitely better then the original Galaxy Gear, Watch Snob Robb, is still not buying it.
Amazon raises the price of Amazon Prime to $99… The entire crew believes that $99 isn't going to cause mass defections from Prime, but, agree that the next hike will have cost conscious shoppers truly looking at the number of items they buy of Amazon and if the saving are truly worth it.
Tesla gets banned from direct sales in New Jersey, Google Drive gets a big price drop, and Amazon is coming out with a set top box / gaming controller. We've got all this, our picks and more in episode #201 of the SMRpodcast.
