Google delays Project Ara modular smartphone pilot until 2016.

Google has scrapped plans to test Project Ara in Puerto Rico and postponed tests until next year. Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects (ATAP) group, the team behind Project Ara, announced the roadmao for its Lego-inspired smartphone pilot had changed yesterday, nixing the original plan to start selling the devices from food trucks in Puerto Rico in the second half of this year.

In a series of tweets since Friday, Google revealed that the market tests will now happen at some point in 2016 at as yet undetermined locations in the US. [1]
