FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- To promote a spirit of

has the expertise and innovative products they need for a connected life, and

"We're focused on becoming the most respected mobility retailer, with
incomparable expertise in our stores and the finest array of innovative
products," said Peter Whitsett, executive vice president and general
