HTC Thunderbolt Release Date

[66dude]

Same here. I have an enV2. Can't get much worse than that! And I get the TB for keeps and not to tide me over until The Next Best Thingtm arrives.

Haha I like the comment

I think I've got the new Thunderbolt motto:

You never know when lightning is going to strike, but you'll know once it hits.

Dual cores this summer.
Quad cores probably for Christmas.
And now I just read, 100x (up to) faster graphics card than current in 2012.
PowerVR 6 graphics promise 100X boost to future iPhones | Electronista

I hope to keep the TB for ~18 months. I cannot even imagine what "phones" will be like then. I really won't need a real computer at that point.

F U Verizon

What did Verizon do? They said Q1 and as far as I'm concerned it's still Q1.

They never made a release date, so what is everyone's hate towards Verizon for?

What does Verizon do?? I have a long list of complaints with Verizon in general...but I need the coverage. Force Bing an Android? Really???? In general, I have had less than stellar customer service from Verizon.

I'm with you 66. Still rockin' the EnV2. Absolutely rock bottom compared to Today's phones. Release the Thunderbolt!

That is the most awesome sentence I have read in ages. So basically out of the four major carrier, only Verizon is capable of meeting your needs .....

Even if it's only for a few days, that makes horrible business sense for VZW to do that.

In other words, this is how it's going to go down.

Fair enough.

lol! true!

wow.. I dont get this.. people are getting upset because VZW hasn't made a release date yet. THEY DONT HAVE TO!! THey can hold the phone til March of next year if they want to. They will put it out when its ready and when they feel like it. Calm down and just wait.

And as was mentioed earlier. I'm not a fan of Apple and I don't like it being on Verizon BUT.. they spent one heck of a lot of money I am sure bringing the iphone over to VZW. Let them ride the wave and make thier money back. If you owned a business I am sure you would take the route of "making money" as well.

exactly, that being said I will be mad at BB b/c mine told me the 14th or 28th... so if its not one of those days I will be mad! >:0

My plans exactly

Yes.

I prefer my phone be able to make and receive phone calls. So far, Only Verizon can make that happen. AT&T doesn't work inside my home or in the warehouse at my work. Sprint does not work inside my home. Tmobile doesn't work almost anywhere I go.. even if I am standing outside sometimes.
Verizon however, works at home, in the warehouse, at the office, on the lake..all the way to Orlando and back. No dropped calls no bad connection. I'm not saying I had 3g at all times but it did have signal.


I should also note that.. I do realize everyone is going to be different because its mainly based on location. This, however, is what the carriers do for me personally.

If you are not capable of seeing the irony in your statement, it's not my fault. It sounds like you should have complaints against AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile, not Verizon.

Yeah, I guess I dont!

I feel about Verizon just about as I feel about Cablevision. You do not need a masters in business to know when users have no choice, you can treat them a bit differently.

But none of this has anything to do with the TB release. Sorry for taking off track.

The fact is that Verizon is a business. They want to make as much money as possible. That's why they're waiting for the iphone return date to pass but its also why they're not charging more for 4g service (yet). They want to maximize cost while also maximizing number of customers. Verizon has the best network so they can afford to make people angry to a certain extent.

thats what happens when Bloggers and such try to dictate a devices release based on information that can and will change.

I'm glad that you guys are posting comments that are virtually useless and not informative at all from Twitter. It's not like VZW can't look and see "oh wow, lots of people want this thing". Possibly they realized they didn't have enough in stock or ready to be shipped to cover the demands.
