Looks like Wal-Mart will be offering the iPhone HD on June 24th, when the highly anticipated next generation iPhone becomes available. This is quite the change of pace for both AT&T and Apple, with previous iPhones only available at official stores of both companies. Best Buy and Radioshack have also announced that they will be offering the new iPhone. This change in policy could have something to do with increased competition that Apple is facing. In previous years, Apple confined the availability of the iPhone in order to increase its exclusivity, but increased encroachment from Android operated devices could be forcing Apple to rethink its marketing strategy. It could be predicted that this new business modus operandi will spill over into other Apple services as the Cupertino based tech firm realizes that it must keep pace with the market or be condemned to suffer the same fate as it did with the Macintosh.
