BlackBerry Bold is FREE at Wal-Mart, LetsTalk

November 5, 2008 in AT&T, BlackBerry, Handsets, Retailers

Once upon a time there was a phone called the Blackberry Bold that was supposed to be the best phone ever invented. But delay after delay pushed the launch date back and people started to unthink it was as cool as another device that was coming out just a couple weeks later - the BlackBerry Storm. So what to do?

Give it away for free at Wal-Mart. You can now walk into a freaking Wal-Mart and get the BlackBerry Bold for free with the signup of a new 2-year contract. The deal was somehow orchestrated through LetsTalk.com - and we kind of fail to understand how all this is being conducted.

So now you can walk into Wally’s and get the T-Mobile G1 and/or the BlackBerry Bold for a price that is CHEAPER than at the actual Wireless Carriers offer it themselves. Ummm… are you kidding me? Is this another incidence of Wal-Mart thrusting their weight into a niche by the “swallow our volume or die” method?

We could be seeing a lot more wireless stuff from Wal-Mart folks, a la BestBuy, especially in these hard economic times. What do you make of all this?
