I noticed today that the Samsung Highlight that was released by T-Mobile last week is already on the Walmart web lineup. Does anyone know when Walmart will have the Comeback? I know August, but I'm looking for a more specific date and will they have both colors? They have both colors of Highlight. Thanks!

Does your local Walmart already have the Highlight in stock?  What part of the country is that?

Thanks!

No, it's on the www.walmart.letstalk.com site which is their wireless site. The hightlight is there already for FREE!

Highlight is $99.99 w/ 2 year contract renewal.  Still way better than TMo's $199.99 (less $50 rebate if you're willing to commit to at least $359 worth of add-on services)

I found the Highlight on Wal-Mart's site as well, but when I try to upgrade, it forces me to change my calling plan to one of their current offerings.  My plan is much better than any of their offerings (MyFaves 1000/$59).  Is there any workaround for this?  It's not worth the phone savings to lose my calling plan.

Did you try calling the Help # listed on that page?    Has anyone got any experience dealing w/ the LetsTalk Walmart site?  Their upgrade prices used to be more than you would pay at the TMo stores, but it looks like that situation is reversed now. 

FWIW I called the local Walmart in-store Cell department to see when the Highlight was going to hit there.  I was told that they don't know in advance, they just post what gets sent to them.

Was at walmart yesterday to get a new line for my daughter and the highlight was $50.00! She did not get that phone, she doesn't like touch screens.
