According to CNN, Wal-Mart will start selling the G1 phone at a discounted price starting Wednesday, a Wal-Mart spokesman confirmed Monday night.
Wal-Mart will carry the Google G1 phone, sold through Deutsche Telekom AG’s (DT) T-Mobile USA, in 550 Wal-Mart stores at the reduced price of $ 148.88 for new customers, or existing customers eligible for an upgrade, who sign up for a two-year agreement, Wal-Mart spokeswoman Melissa O’Brien said.
Consumers interested in purchasing the T-Mobile G1 can save $31.11 at Wal-Mart as opposed to buying through T-Mobile, which sells the device for $179.99.
Not anymore! WalMart to sell G1 for $179.99
Outrage from current G1 owners upon announcement of the discounted WalMart price, and corporate fear of having to credit tens of thousands of customers probably prompted this move.
When will the G1′s come to Walmart?
It has been available online and Wal-Mart brick&mortar stores.
Price might vary by store.
