Best Buy CEO Brian Dunn recently indicated that the company plans to open “a number somewhere between here and 1,000″ new retail outlets that will focus only on mobile phones and mobile services. Best Buy already offers a store-within-a-store mobile shopping experience at its big box retail facilities and claims they have been successful to-date. Best Buy also has a limited number of stand-alone mobile stores. Best Buy was recently named as a potential candidate to acquire RadioShack, which would offer it a quick way to expand its mobile retail presence across the U.S. in shopping plazas and malls where mobile phones are often sold.
