The Wocket is a next generation platform that is designed to provide consumers with the convenience of packaging all cards in your wallet into one dynamic card.

"It's been heavily publicized that the U.S. is using outdated credit card technology," wrote Julie May of the Tennessean. "But not for long, because digital wallets such as COIN and The Wocket® will be hitting the market in 2014. Digital wallets aggregate multiple credit cards and, in some cases, personal identification onto one card that can be used for purchases anywhere that accepts credit cards. They provide an additional level of security over current credit cards."

The company is focused on the growing m-commerce market, launching its innovative MobileBio suite of biometric solutions that secure consumers' mobile platforms.

MacRumors has discovered a batch of new Apple Inc. (AAPL) patent applications, included 17 published last Thursday, related to the use of Liquidmetal Technologies Inc. (LQMT) alloys. The applications cover button/switch pressure sensors, tamper-resistant screws, and touch sensor substrates, among other potential use cases. Liquidmetal shares, which made new 52-week highs last week before retreating, have rallied again on the pink sheets. Shares also moved higher in November in response to Apple patent applications covering Liquidmetal usage.

Telefonica (TEF) and NII Holdings (NIHD) have signed agreements whereby Telefonica will provide NII's subsidiaries, operating under the Nextel brand in Brazil and Mexico, nationwide voice and data coverage services on Telefonica's 3G wireless networks. When implemented, the agreements will expand the areas in which Nextel customers using 3G services in Brazil and Mexico can access voice and data services, supporting NII's growth strategy. Both companies will work closely to implement the agreements as soon as possible. Telefonica and NII's subsidiaries will continue to manage their spectrum and network assets separately to provide competing services.

Elliott Management Corporation, which owns 6.2% of the common stock of Juniper Networks, Inc. (JNPR), filed a Schedule 13D and released a presentation Monday entitled "Juniper Networks: Elliott Management's Perspectives," available at http://www.new-juniper.com . "Juniper's new CEO along with its existing management team and Board have a unique opportunity to immediately unlock significant value at the Company through three straightforward and much-requested courses of action," said Jesse Cohn, Portfolio Manager at Elliott. "Investors and Street analysts have been calling for Juniper to implement these value-creation initiatives for years, and we believe the three-pronged approach laid out in today's presentation would be very well received."
