Union ratchets up pressure on Amazon Germany

BERLIN (AP) ? Union members at online retailer Amazon's German operations have begun a two-day strike to ratchet up pressure on the company over pay demands.

The ver.di union says workers at Amazon's distribution centers in Leipzig and Bad Hersfeld began the strike Monday following three earlier one-day strikes since May.

The union says Amazon's roughly 5,300 workers at the sites receive lower wages than their peers in the online retail industry.

Amazon says workers are performing mainly logistical work and should therefore receive pay levels appropriate for that industry.

EE rolls out 4G LTE in nine more UK towns and cities

Sole UK 4G LTE carrier EE (Everything Everywhere) has announced that it's switched on 4G coverage in a further nine towns and cities across the country. From today, EE customers in Barnsley, Chorley, Coventry, Newport, Preston, Rotherham, Telford, Walsall and Watford will be able to pick up LTE reception on supporting devices. Four months after it first rolled out 4G, EE's total market count stands at 37.

The network plans to have 4G coverage in 65 towns and cities by the end of June, by which time it may face competition from the other mobile operators. Following the recent wrap-up of the 4G spectrum auction, Three, O2 and Vodafone will be looking to roll out their own LTE services in late spring and early summer.
