| Walmart USA now has their own Cell Service
Thats right.. Walmart in the US will now have "The Wal-Mart Family Mobile service" which is powered by T-Mobile.
im guessing within 1-2 years walmart canada will have its own cell service..
They will start with 5 phones, including the Motorola Cliq XT...
Unlimited calling and texting will cost $45 per month for the first line and $25 for each additional line for the family. The service will be offered starting next week in most of its stores across the nation. The Wal-Mart Family Mobile service |

lots of realtors around the world have their own cell service which is under an actual cellular company..
Tesco in the UK for example (they're like our superstore/loblaws)

We are going to see Wal-Mart extend into many different industries over the new few years.
I am sure many have heard about their entry into banking: http://www.financialpost.com/news/Ma...620/story.html |

thats cool. It also isn't that expensive per phone if you have more than 1 phone on the account.
