<iWalmart shoppers this month began to notice something strange. Some Walmart store owners have already put up the decals and cardboard standups for a new ad campaign advertising the iPhone at Apple. The ads state simply, "iPhone 3G: Now at Walmart".
According to prior reports the handsets will go on sale at 9:00 A.M. on Sunday, December 28th.

News was posted on 12/22 at 8:02 AM . . . last wager was on 12/19 so all wagers will be settled within the next several hours...right now, I'm about to make a sweet potato casserole, so Hubdub may have to wait a bit longer.
Thanks to Deanthoreau for another great job in locating settlement info! You've really been a big help!
