If this were the case then why didn't WalMart sell the first iPhone? In case you Forgot Apple owns the Phone, of course they can sell it in their stores. Geeeeeeeeeeez.
Poor Logic at its best.
It is not poor logic. You said that At&t has exclusive rights in regards to the selling of the phone, which is totally and completely incorrect. If they had exclusive rights to its sale, Apple, as I originally pointed out, although the manufacturer, would not be able to sell it in their stores, which Apple would not allow to happen. At&t's exclusiveness extends only to cell service. My Walmart point was in reference to the possibility of RS and BB selling the phone. IF Apple was going to let BB and RS sell the iPhone, they could also allow Walmart should they choose to expand their distribution in this direction. Your use of exclusivity is incorrectly applied and/or understood by you.
