Amazon looks to be putting Fire Phone to rest

Amazon looks like they’re putting the final nail on the coffin of its Fire Phone, the company’s first foray into the smartphone business. They haven’t announced it explicitly but stocks have run out on Amazon’s site and they didn’t indicate when they plan on restocking. The company was previously rumoured to have restricted its Lab126 hardware development division and laid off engineers who were working on the phone. No matter what Amazon did to try and sell the device, everything from cutting down its price to almost giving it away via telco contract. They weren’t to get the phone off the ground.
