So, atleast part of the iPhone rumors were true.
Walmart has officially started selling iPhone 3G at select stores. Walmart becomes the second third-party retailer in the US to sell iPhone 3G besides Best Buy who even offered an iPhone buying guide.
Although earlier rumors pointed at Walmart and even Costco to sell a cheaper version of iPhone 3G, possibly a 4GB iPhone for $99, that part proved to be untrue.
Walmart is selling iPhone 3G 16 GB with a 2 year contract for $297 and the 8GB model for $197. With Walmart catering to a wider range of consumers, Apple could actually end up selling more iPhones this way. We’ll have to wait and see how this changes the game.
