Is it true that a certain model of iTouches are $100 at Wal-mart? - Hardware & Software

I was watching Attack of the Show last night, and I'm pretty sure I heard them say that due to a new model of Ipod Touches being released, one of the current models of Ipod Touch was lowered to $100. Is this true?

I'm not sure but I do know the iPhone 3GS is now $97 at Wal-Mart.

[QUOTE=Makol;22205484]I'm not sure but I do know the iPhone 3GS is now $97 at Wal-Mart.[/QUOTE] It HAS to be the 3G.

[QUOTE=ExTek;22211577]It HAS to be the 3G.[/QUOTE] Nope, it's the 3GS. Apple is cutting the 3G from stores and reducing the price of the 3GS because of the next iPhone coming out.

[QUOTE=Makol;22205484]I'm not sure but I do know the iPhone 3GS is now $97 at Wal-Mart.[/QUOTE] How can they afford to sell it that cheap? Surely they're making huge losses.. unless that's with a contract.

I've never heard of an iTouch. I've only heard of an iPod Touch...

[QUOTE=MUFC2007;22213684]The iPhone is with a contract, again.[/QUOTE] Unless the contract is horrible expensive, I see no reason why you shouldn't get an iPhone instead of an iPod Touch, if it costs the same as an iPod Touch does.

[QUOTE=Tools;22213853]Unless the contract is horrible expensive, I see no reason why you shouldn't get an iPhone instead of an iPod Touch, if it costs the same as an iPod Touch does.[/QUOTE] I've got a 3GS on contract, £30 a month, unlimited 3G internet, unlimited texts, I forgot how many minutes but its something like 500-600. Thats with Orange in the UK btw.

By the way, couldn't find an iPod Touch for less than $170 on walmart's website. Try calling a local shop.

Now get that into your fucking head you stupid git.
