Of course, if Amazon detects a Walmart IP address, it could go from $4.99 to $.01, just for Walmart to match.

Ouch.
They definitely can tweak'em but I suspect they would stick to showing higher prices since the Walmart folks will be trained to match the higher of the two Amazon prices. Better to make'em fight the customer if you're going to be nasty.
