Then again, Wal-Mart sells the iPad so they haven't found it a problem. Regardless, in the <a href="http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2013631005_costco09.html" target="_blank">story</a> from The Seattle Times it says they are "winding down" their relationship. What this mean is once they sell out of their current stock, there won't be any more available. At least for the foreseeable future.</p>
