Apple, Walmart to do $99 4GB iPhone?

[Goat Roper]

Love my iPhone, but something about Wal-Mart selling them doesn't sit right. A 4gb version for $99 would fly off the shelves though and probably really push more innovation.

I'd be curious if it would lack other features as well or be made with less quality to meet the price point.

They are going to have to lower the price with all the copy cat phones beginning to flood the market.

I don't think it'll be any less of a quality unit than the current Iphone. I only say that because they'll be able to manufacture that phone at a much larger profit margin now than they had been when it origionally came out (because of operational efficiencies and material costs).

I'm sure it'll be hard to get - and I'm sure Apple will sacrafice the continued high margin they have on the 3g for the increase in product sales and branding they'll recieve through Wal-mart.
