HTC Thunderbolt Release Date

Not open for further replies.
They sold a lot of Droids at $300 - a $100 rebate for a 2 year contract. Not much different between that and $350 - $140 for a 2 year contract.

Can't remember where i read it, but Verizon wasn't going to use Mail-in Rebates anymore. [soapbox]If they do sell the phone for 350, Verizon can have a giant pile of suck it. AT&T has there own version of the Thunderbolt/Evo for only 150 w/ 2year contract. it may only have 1/2 the Ram and only an 8GB SD card, but i'll just hold out and switch to AT&T or Sprint if Verizon keeps on handling their contract phones like this.[/soapbox]

:soapbox:

Instead of mail in rebates i believe in that same thread i read that it will be akin to a car dealer marketing as "instant rebates", i mean they do the instant rebate if you purchase online...it seems to fit, but then, who am I?

I wonder what time it would be officially launched if it does launch today, and also I wouldnt think that bb would have it in there add on the 20th if it wouldn't be available till almost the end of the following week.
 
Since I like Android I deem it to be Coke and the iPhone to be Pepsi!!!


Agreed!! +1,000,000. Pepsi $uck$.

Lets stay on topic. I know I took part as well, I just dont want this monster to get shut down. Kind of a slow Wed as far as TB news goes. Hoping for news tomorrow!
 
Iv talked with Verizon today because they are sending me yet another fascinate and they have no release date. I was told the same by 3 different best buys also.

Based on the fact that the Thunderbolt Countdown commercial has appeared on TV. I'm guessing the 24th is still going to be the release date.

At least I'm hoping so... :D
 
Just for the fun of it I stopped by my local BB yesterday.
Asked, when the TB release date was, response, don't know.
Do you have any in stock? Don't know.
Are you taking preorders? No, we usually only take preorders a month or so before a release.
Ok.. well, most other best buy's are doing preorders and have been for a while. Well... let me double check.......yep, we just started taking preorders today.

BB fail, again.

epic fail.

and i dont think a 2-17 release date is going to happen.
2-24?
 
Ive been a bit bias due to the D1 being my first smartphone, and my first android powered device. However after much debate with myself on the subject Im actually very eager to hit the local VZW and check this phone out. I originally wanted to pick up a dual core so Id stay more up to date, but with the update on possible quad cores by Christmas, chances are Ill grab this to explore HTC and continue to enjoy the world of root dancedroid until the new quad cores show their faces, because frankly, as much as I love my D1, I desperately want a bigger screen as I primarily browse the internet and watch videos on my device and 3.7" screen just isnt cutting it anymore lol. Im not really sure what Ill do with my D1 as its a brand new warranty replacement.
