You know that the iPhone has really left its mark, when Wal-Mart starts sniffing their corporate nose around it. Boygeniusreport.com reported back in October that Wal-Mart could soon be carrying iPhones. That rumor has since proven to be true, although they were incorrect about the release date. They claimed the iPhone would be at Wal-Mart by mid-November but is actually releasing after Christmas.
A new rumor has surfaced from the same website. Their source, they admit isn’t 100% verified but the news isn’t any less exciting to talk about.
Their source claims that a $99 deal for a 4GB iPhone, with two year contract. When the iPhone first released, the models came in 4GB, and 8GB. Since that time, the 4GB has been scrapped. With the economy the way that it is, it does seem like a good business move to offer cheaper options for consumers. For now though it’s still all speculative, but will find out later this month.

Some areas that Apple is still heavily improving, is the 64 bit support and some of the programs used with the Cocoa programming interface.
Snow Leopard looks to be still be growing. Luckily, nothing in the report has led anyone to think that Mac’s next OS X will come any later than the speculated Spring 2009 launch.
