Until I see a press release, the removal of all mentions of Vex from RadioShack's stores and website, or JVN at my front door telling me otherwise, I'm still not sold on this being any more than just RadioShack trying to move inventory out during the summer.
I'm seriously hoping that it's not discontinuing. If it is nothing more than inventory processing, that would be excellent. There are a lot of teams in this area that are getting geared up for VEX and wanting mentors from our university.
