Amid talk of some AT&T stores being less than keen to sell you an iPhone comes word that Best Buy may be the next bricks & mortar location to get your fix of the Apple phone.  Insider sources have revealed that by October (and more likely September) all Best Buy stores should be selling the iPhone with demo models on hand.

Macs are currently available in a select few Best Buy stores as part of a trial programme with Apple, and based on the success of this the duo intend to hit 200 stores retailing Apple products by the end of September and 300 by the end of the year.  Sources close to the retailer, however, have suggested that an acceleration of the project may see it hit that 300 target before October.

At that point, around 40-percent of Best Buy's stores will offer almost 80-percent of Apple's product line, aided by specialist "boutique" areas in each store that demo the gadgetry complete with "mini-theatre displays with surround-sound."
