How fitting indeed. The store that attracts some of the lowest, trashiest, insipid, people finally has another product for them. Try not to trample anyone this time you worthless *****.

I was at Walmart last night and they have a fully functioning display model to play around with. Great phone but seriously needs cut n paste and the ability to use 3rd party software keyboard without jailbreaking.

How fitting. WalMart has risen to the top selling cheap garbage to the lower class. The Iphone will fit right in with their other inventory and appeal to their target market.

I have a G1 for my tinkering; but I bought an iPhone for my wife, sister (a Touch), and mother-in-law. They bought their own apps and music. They have gotten other people to by iPhones and gave away iTunes gift cards for Xmas.

The concept of open source may be better for me, but Apple’s ecosystem approach is winning the war right now.

G1 = no battery life, although the OS will eventually be good.
i agree though more sources to buy iphones the better.

“Open source is where it’s at.”

You better hope that cupcake kicks some ass. It should make or break the g1 along with the charging for apps. If that doesn’t work then i pray for android

G1 is so much better and priced better at wallyworld. You buy it at WM and you get a $50 gift card right there.

I own an iPhone and have to say that is one heavy biased piece of writing.

I got a flyer for it from Walmart last week but I got an iPhone this morning!

I personally think this is great. The more venues, the better. The more Apple hardware that sells, the more revenue Apple will put into innovation and delivering the unique Apple experience. I hope more and more Macs will sell too.

Best buy is selling both i phones for 189.99 and 289.99 respectively… because of the walmart price. Well at least my store is.

I don;t think they want that headache, activesync is as far as they should want to support. Stick to what they have already and expand on that.

This will bump the sales through till they release the next version.

If they figure out a way to compete with BES it’s game over.
