Boy Genius Report is reporting that next month, Wal-Mart will join Best Buy as a third-party iPhone reseller. The report says that Wal-Mart will make the announcement on Saturday, November 15th - about two weeks before Black Friday, the start of the holiday shopping season in the US and the busiest shopping day of the year. 

It was Boy Genius Report that told us that Best Buy was going to be the first third-party reseller of the iPhone, so there's reason to believe that this rumor is true as well. Wal-Mart is already one of Apple's highest volume iPod resellers, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the iPhone joining it.
