Walmart iPhone Shopping--There Can Be Only One!
No, literally. If you are looking for an iPhone 4 at a southeast Houston, Texas Walmart, well, forget about it--that is unless you are the Highlander. A poll of local Walmart stores in the Texas bay area netted us information that each store had only one iPhone 4 for sale. Contrary to rumors stemming from Walmart's own website there weren't any white ones for sale unless you had a sword.
Local area Walmart stores started selling their iPhone 4 stock promptly at 7:00 am today, and while we did not hear about any riots or stampedes that Walmart is usually famous for, we did hear about a sword fight or two over the single unit availability of the iPhone 4. Customers that showed good skill with the blade left with an iPhone 4, while others left without their heads.
The real sale was going on at local Apple stores where since the Dawn of Time users came, moving silently down through the iPhone iterations, living many secret lives, struggling to activate their iPhones in order to reach the Time of the Gathering, where the few who remain will battle to the last over white iPhones or access to more bars. No one has ever known we were among you, until now!
So, that's news from the Walmart iPhone 4 front. Like the Highlander, there can only be one customer leaving with an iPhone 4 at America's biggest retailer!

Brenham, TX Wal-Mart only had one black 16GB iPhone. When people found out it was a 16GB, they left, except for one lucky fan.

Considering the number of Highlander references you threw in there, it's surprising you got the quote wrong on your title.
