Called my local walmart and asked about the iPhone and they said they were unsure of the date but heard it would for sure be out this month… And this was just a random electronics employee at 10:30 at night.

This doesn’t prove anything. Calling electronics doesn’t help since the dept that sells the phones is the mobile center. Also, RAE’s for AT&T at least in the west coast haven’t heard crap. And if the RAE’s don’t know, then the lower level employee’s in WalMart don’t know. So, at the very least until RAE’s get the message, I call FUD on the while thing.

G_Money21, lol no – we have several sources who have reported the memo referenced in the post, and another familiar source who has stated a 2008 release. The call is up because supports the statement that news of WM carrying the iPhone is now reaching employees, and it’s funny.

This is a big step for apple. If they allow Wal-Mart to carry the Exclusive phone than it wont be long until it hits Authorized Retailers.

Just because the iPhone is cheap now doesn’t mean the ATT Plan is. Many people will start to look at expenses and see 75 to 80 dollars a month is too much and might jump ship because of the economy, just saying
