3G iPhone will be available at Best Buy & Radio Shack
Apparently, the new iPhone won’t just be available in Apple and AT&T stores, but the 3G iPhone will also be available at other places like Best Buy and Radio Shack. Obviously it makes sense and makes it easier for consumers to spend their money. Many would say that it’s about time too.

The iPhone is scheduled to come out by the 11th of this month, but there are some details we just don’t have yet. These stores may not have the iPhone on the first day if Apple wants to be all “Apple stores first”. Either way, it just doesn’t pay to wait in line. Just relax. Take a deep breath. You’ll get one.
