Walmart to Release the Nexus One for $99
Over at Walmart’s Online site, specifically under its Wireless section, a new product page showed up announcing the Google Nexus One. While it may not be impossible for Walmart to release the Nexus One soon, what is more interesting as noted by AndroidandMe is that it may be released not only under a Verizon contract but AT&T as well.
While Google may have previously announced that it is also planning to release Nexus One under Verizon, what was not announced though is the AT&T version.
The blog post also cited another blog reporting that Walmart might offer the Nexus One for $99 under a 2-year service contract. What is not clear is whether Walmart was able to negotiate a lower price with Google , if indeed the rumor is true. As you all know, the Nexus One is available under T-Mobile for $179.
Again, these are both unofficial and does not really came from Google. Although we could not discount the fact that Google might resort to this plan to increase the Nexus One’s userbase. If indeed the $99 Nexus One is true, those who have not yet bought the phone should start hoping that Google will also reduce T-Mobile’s offering price for the phone.
So, what do you think? Will this push through or not?
