    the thing is though apple did do a good job with how they created the os on the phone they make the hardware last longer also realize that because of apple the prices of top notch phones are really coming down if iPhone wasn't 199 there is no way that the storm would be

    yea very true about the pricing...I totally agree. However, If I was an iphone user and all of a sudden the started selling my phone at walmart...I would be pretty pissed. The cool factor is history once it becomes available at wally world.

    No longer will people look at the iphone in wow, more like " he bought it from walmart "

    Don't you think at some point the Storm will be sitting right next to the rest of the VZ phones at Wally world when we are waiting for the Storm 2?

    LOL.

    This thread makes me laugh because some dolt on the google finance forums for RIM was talking up his iPhone and how you'd never see it in walmart.

    There ya go...toss the Storm in the cart along with the milk, eggs, and a bag of socks.

    As far as Sam's Club, that is Wal-Mart with a cover charge.

    Walmart getting the storm shouldn't be that big of a deal, they just want to make the phone available to everyone and walmart is usually cheaper than other stores. The T1 is selling at walmart i believe at even cheaper than the 179.99 it is at T Mobile. I think its a decent idea because the more people that have the phone, the more possible third party apps they will develop for it specially with a phone like T1 which is running android

    Oh trust me, Apple fan boys think highly enough and are so protective about their company that they will be pissed to the point of LIVID about walmart having it.

    So, Walmart can sell iPods but not iPhones? Seriously, that just goes to show everyone how dumb and shallow some people can be. Oh, and by the way, some Walmarts have been selling the Storm since its release date....
    Does that make it uncool? No, it'll just cost less than if you were to purchase it at a Verizon store because you don't have to wait for the rebate, it's already included in the price.

    i dunno about Sams Club being a walmart with a cover charge. While the 2 may operate similar the customer base of Sams Club is WAY different!

    as for the iphone being uncool for being sold at walmart....that doesnt make it uncool. it being an iphone is what makes it uncool. What i think is uncool about it is that just about everybody already has one. Seriously they are saying its outsold the razor and i seriously got so sick of seeing that thing everyplace. hated the phone to begin with. then everybody got one and made me hate it more

    Who cares if Wally has it? I don't and you know none of you do! if you couldnt get your hands on a storm and you WANTED one you would go to Walmart to get one so stop pretending like you wouldn't. If Walmart had a Telus one I'd be there when they opened tomorrow first in line lol!
