Not even a $99 iPhone would make me buy ANYTHING at Walmart.

Maybe not, depending on who you listen to.

From The Street
Quote:
Apple is reportedly opening up another front in its smartphone war by teaming up with Wal-Mart for the holiday season, although rumors of a $99 iPhone may be wide of the mark.
From Business Week:
iPhone At Walmart? Yes. At $99? Unlikely.
Quote:
Why bother with a 4GB iPhone in the first place? Sure you can get the price down from the $199 starting price on the 8 GB model, but you can’t fit much in the way of media and applications on a 4 GB phone.

You might argue that Apple might like the opportunity to get the iPhone into Walmart, but remember, Apple is a premium brand, and isn’t exactly the sort of company that would compromise that cachet, even for so big a retail partner as Walmart.

Analyst Maynard J. Um, writing in a research note for UBS issued this morning, says a $99 iPhone would be “atypical of Apple’s premium brand strategy ($149 seems more logical if a 4GB model were introduced). More likely is a scenario in which select Wal-Mart (& possibly Sam’s Clubs) are simply added as further iPhone distribution points (like the Best Buy announcement).” Additionally he says a 4GB would likely cannibalize sales of the 8 GB and 16 GB models.
There are many more credible sources saying no, so I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. Also, I agree that the 4BG iPhone would be kinda worthless.
