$99 iPhone 3G with 4GB to rumored to sell on Walmart
I4U News —
... . Now BGR got a tip that Walmart is actually also offering a "low-end" iPhone 3G with 4GB storage for $99. If you just want to use the iPhone as a smartphone and only occasionally for listening to music or carry videos around 4GB is more than enough. It is just funny to see that in Europe carriers handle the price barrier by giving the iPhone 3G to new customers for free or 1 Euro and in the United States the device itself needs work to make the price drop.

Cheap iPhone might be headed to Walmart
The Tech Report: News —
... 9:39 AM on December 4, 2008 Many techies and regular users are drooling over the iPhone, even if the $199 price tag puts it a bit out of many folks' reach. However, Boy Genius Report says it's received a tip about a cheaper iPhone that could be headed to Walmart . How much cheaper? $99, the site says. Naturally, the lower price tag will involve some compromises. The $99 iPhone will reportedly feature only 4GB of storage capacity, and it will be tied to a two-year contract just like the $199 iPhone 3G. The cheapest iPhone 3G plan was ~$70 a month last time we checked, so the ...

Walmart to get $99 iPhone?
DV Hardware —
... Boy Genius Report heard a rumour that Walmart may soon sell a 4GB iPhone with a 2-year contract for just $99: Were not putting our stamp of approval behind this one just yet as the tipster isnt listed in our BGRs Guide to respected Ninjas handbook, but it does make you think, doesnt it? Now, we all know Apple dropped the 4GB iPhone from its initial line-up, but that was at a $399 price-point. 4GB is certainly enough for some songs and short music videos, but lets not kid ourselves. Anyone looking to spend $99 on an iPhone probably doesnt care ...
Would a $99 price tag turn the iPhone into a RAZR?
Hardware 2.0 —
... Rumors are abound that soon you’ll be seeing a 4GB iPhone on sale in Walmart stores for $99. Would this price drop devalue the iPhone and transform it into the RAZR? I’m not going to comment on the reliability of the rumor, other than to say that I’ve had a few people tell me that this might be happening, but iPhone-related rumors are dime a dozen. I’m more interested in thinking about what kind of effect a cheap iPhone would have. My guess would be that a $99 iPhone would sell well, even with a 2-year contract. the fact that it only housed 4GB of storage wouldn’t matter - ...
