Default Storm at Walmart?

Please Login to Remove!

There was a big ruckus when Walmart started selling the Bold for Free after rebate while AT&T sells it for $299. Anyone know if Walmart will sell the Storm?

Didn't even knew Walmart sold BB's. But seriously why are people buying phones at these stores. I prefer VZW corp stores.

I was in Wally World tonight and they had the 8310 on the shelf for 28 dollars with a 2yr agreement with AT$T and a 58 dollar data plan...don't know why the data plan is so much though!!!

Didn't see any Storm phones there for sell..

If WalMart has an authorized Verizon dealer in store then they will probably get the Storm. I can't imagine it being right away but they will get it.

Walmart does their sales (at least for the Bold) through Letstalk.com

Good catch, I thought it was them but wasn't 100% sure. Aren't there some "horror stories" about LetsTalk or am I thinking of another web-based reseller? I

I want to get the best deal I can on the Storm and I was thinking it might be available through "other" means besides just Vzw because Best Buy is getting it also.

Walmart deal for Bold was online online. Also worth noting that Amazon has had the Curve for free or negative money on AT&T and T-Mo for some time. Not sure what the price of the curve on Verizon is but I don't think it was as cheap as the others.
