iPad comes to Wal-Mart

Wal-Mart will start selling theApple iPad this Friday, a coup for the discount store which will now have the popular tablet in its stores ahead of the holiday shopping season. Rival Best Buy has been selling the device since its launch in April, but Wal-Mart insists its sales heft will compensate for being late to the game and it plans to have 2,300 stores selling the iPad by mid-November.
