iPhone 3G refurbished models offered by AT&T for $150
Obsessable News Feed — Used iPhones are finally available, but they have a reduced warranty period. Just a couple of months ago the iPhone 3G was an elusive prize, but now you can get a used 8 gigabyte model from AT&T for $150, 50 bucks below the regular price. It's a refurbished model, meaning someone bought it and returned it within the 30-day return period, and then AT&T fixed it up and put it back on the market. The downsides: the warranty period is 90 days instead of a year, and some refurbished phones might have scratches on them. If you're on a tight budget (and who isn't these days?), it's still not a bad deal for a cell phone-meets-mini-computer-meets-iPod, and shipping is included ...

The $99 iPhone lives! (Through AT&T, not Walmart)
VentureBeat — Some of you are likely upset that we now know for certain that Walmart won’t be selling the iPhone for $99, and instead will give it a measly $2 discount when it goes on sale on Sunday.

iPhone Price Drops To $99 -- Refurbished (AAPL)
Silicon Alley Insider — The $99 iPhone is here -- but probably in limited quantities. AT&T; (T) is selling Apple's (AAPL) phone refurbished for $100 off its retail price. That means 8GB iPhones are $99 and 16GB iPhones are $199 -- both with a 2-year contract and 90-day warranty. We assume the carrier is trying to get rid of its inventory before the end of the year and that the $99 refurbished units won't be in heavy supply for long. But we also don't think it'll be long before Apple and AT&T; drop the price for new iPhones to $99. Apple is in the early stages of a platform land grab against Google (GOOG), Research In Motion (RIMM) and perhaps Palm (PALM), and market share is important. Dropping the ...

iPhone Savior — AT&T is now offering iPhone 3G 8GB iPhones for $99 with a new 2 year service contract or a 16GB model in White or Black can be had for $199. Is it really worth the risk? That's one of those questions that always ends with... that depends. AT&T refurbished devices are described by the company as, "Previously owned devices that have been unused or lightly used and returned during the 30-day trial period." The company makes every effort to reveal that, "Some refurbished iPhone 3G devices will have minor scratches." I hate to be Buzz Killington, but the possibility of enjoying some other dude's scratches out of the box is a deal breaker for ...

E-book boost: $99 iPhone refurbs from AT&T
TeleRead: Bring the E-Books Home — Some low-income people are actually gravitating to the iPhone because they can use it for many purposes, not just as a phone.

AT&T Selling $99 iPhone, But It’s Refurbished & Temporary
Pulse2 - Technology News And Reviews — Earlier this month, Boy Genius Report started a rumor that Wal-Mart may start selling iPhones with a price of $99 with a two year agreement.  The rumor came true to a certain extent.  Wal-Mart will now be selling the iPhones and AT&T will be selling refurbished 8GB black iPhone for $99 with a two year agreement.  Prior to this price, AT&T was selling the same device for $149.

$99 iPhone Arrives, But Not at Walmart

This news comes in at the exact same time that Walmart's iPhone goes official, at $197 for the 8GB handset. That AT&T is selling refurbs is nothing special -- both AT&T and Apple are veterans of the refurb game and some great bargains can be had.

But the fact that Walmart, a company known for squeezing every penny out of its suppliers, managed to knock Apple down just $2 is astonishing. We wouldn't be surprised if this discount is actually coming out of Walmart's pocket. Of course, ...
