RadioShack To Introduce iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS To Its Stores
February 11th, 2010
Beginning later this month, and as part of its ongoing mobility strategy, RadioShack have announced that they will be offering both the Apple iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in a limited number company-owned stores across the US. The stores carrying the device will include stores located in both the Dallas-Fort Worth and New York City metropolitan areas. The company says that it expects to introduce the iPhone into all of its stores in the US, nationwide by the end of the year.
RadioShack is a chain of electronics retail stores, and as of 2008, it had 4,653 company-owned stores, 688 kiosks, 8 service centers, and 1,408 dealer outlets. RadioShack reported net sales and operating revenues of $4.81 Billion.
For those of you keeping up with all of your Apple news today, this won’t come as much of a shock, but the iPhone 3GS has been officially announced and will be available on June 19th. While the phone doesn’t have the often rumored front facing camera, it does have a 3MP camera with auto focus, auto white balance, and a really cool tap to focus feature. Along with that, the iPhone 3GS lets you record 30 fps VGA video with audio, and gives you all the same features that the camera provides. Schiller says that, “I can tap share and send it in an email… (and) if my carrier supports it (AT&T… burn), I can send as an MMS.”
