iPhone Comes to Wal-Mart
When Apple released the original iPhone, the only place you could get the phone at was through Apple. With the release of the 3G iPhone, Apple decided to allow the AT&T Store to sell the phones as well. Now, Apple is hoping to take this a step further. Since the launch of the 3G iPhone, Best Buy has begun to carry the phone and soon it may be available at Wal-Mart.
One of our ninjas has it on good authority that Walmart will begin selling the iPhone 3G next month - on November 15th to be exact. If Walmart is indeed getting the iPhone 3G, the timing makes sense with Black Friday coming just under two weeks later. Bringing the iPhone 3G to Walton’s wonder would definitely help ease the congestion a bit for those heading out to snag an iPhone 3G as a gift. Then again, considering you can’t leave a store without activating the handset first, we doubt the iPhone 3G will sell anywhere near as well as the iPhone did under the previous activation model here in the US

For those of you waiting to get your hands on the 3G iPhone, it may be worth your while to wait for Wal-Mart to stock it. While I am fairly sure that Apple sets the price on the iPhone, Wal-Mart has been known for its low prices and might be able to sell it for a lesser price than that at Worst Best Buy.
