<Donald Trump> Your'e Fired. </Donald Trump> :biggrin:
Do you REALLY think it's being delayed because it's not "100%?"
Bahhhh, it's already been shipped - I bet every Best Buy in this country is stocked with these things, in boxes, with giant labels that say DO NOT SELL UNTIL WE SAY SO -LOVE VERIZON.
Be clear - you're being jerked around. Verizon is in bed with Apple now and they're not screwing up that relationship by pushing a nerdy Android device. Steve Jobs might get jealous
Phones don't magically get released without notice. There isn't even a slim chance this phone gets released this week.

I'm not trolling - just offering a littler perspective - and a reality check.
We all should wait untill the 24th and see what happens. If Verizon is as money hungry and is worried about new customers like everyone is saying, they will want to get the TB out ASAP to compete with the Atrix and the Inspire from AT&T The 24th may be just close enough to the Atrix release to lure in customers from the dual core hype that AT&T will no doubt be causing, and just far enough from the Iphone release so they wont have to worry about a huge wave of returns.

There are ads running on most of the major tv channels, YouTube an ad that took over cnn.com's home page a few days ago and now this Sports - CBSSports.com Sports News, Fantasy Scores, Sports Video
They are giving notice, plenty of it.

I don't know if its been said in the last 400 pages. But iPhone release date 2/10 + 14 day return policy = 2/24 at the earliest for any 4G release. That's a Thursday though, so I'll guess Saturday the 26th or Sunday the 27th.

perspective? you're offering an unsupported claim about a conspiracy that apple and verizon are in bed.
please, to both the people that are saying 2-24 and those who argue. please don't try to push your "facts" without any real evidence. leave the speculation to those who at least cite articles or have sources.
Actually, I have a retort to this. What they're doing is probably good business sense... Verizon isn't trying to compete with the Atrix. They have the Android market cornered. You see, in the world of mobile phones, there are few "new" customers to get - most everyone has a cell phone. The thorn in Verizon's side has always been the iPhone - that one super popular device that AT&T had it's stranglehold on. Now that Verizon has it, they finally have the trump card to win subscribers from their biggest competetor - Big Blue. And it's working - people are willingly paying the early term fee just to switch to the same exact phone on a different network. What can I say, people are dumb.
The point is, the Thunderbolt isn't about to win Verizon any subscribers. How many of you are on AT&T right now? I'd go with none, if you were on AT&T, you'd just say the heck with it and get the Atrix. But you're on Verizon and THIS is the phone you've been waiting for. This is the phone for YOU, the loyal subscriber. And as you can see, you're not leaving - you're not about to switch to AT&T's clunkier, "4G in name only" network. You're staying put, and you'll put up with all the delays in the world on this phone until it's finally released - which should be way past the point anyone can start trading in their iPhone 4's or have their marketing cross paths with it.
I'm telling you, they are not losing subscribers to AT&T for the Atrix - Atrix pre-orders were barely a drop in the bucket compared to iPhone on Verizon and I'd guess the vast majority are already AT&T subscribers. Verizon doesn't care about you, or the Thunderbolt, or their LTE network for that matter until iPhone 5 comes out and Verizon can say their 4G network is way better than the one on AT&T. iPhone is for the masses - Android is for the enthusiasts and was just a stopgap for Vz until they could finally get into bed with Apple.
I'm sorry, but it's true. The Thunderbolt should be out soon, but certainly not this week.

Haahahaaa, Love it
You are wrong about the phone not being released this week though!

That's funny, because almost every source and article that's been quoted in the 700 some pages of this thread has been pretty much dead wrong - and my speculation that Verizon only cares about the iPhone now and that the phone will be released in March at the earliest seems to be the most accurate thing on here so far.
Don't kid yourself - every article, source and speculative post by me or anyone else is no more or less reliable than anything else out there.
