I did the new Maintenance Release update at noon Central Time. So far no problems, no reboots. Also the MR2 has a 3g/4g switch in your "wireless & networks" part of your settings. They also added a "My Verizon" that actually works, GPS still takes a long time to lock on. I will post an update later, or if an issues (REBOOTS) pop up.
ANDROID CENTRAL announced
The HTC Thunderbolt MR2 release, rumored for a rollout around or after June 15, has been leaked and is now available for download in both an unaltered version as well as a few custom ROMs. We figured when the MR2 radio leaked out a while back that we would soon be seeing this one. Some of the highlights include better signal strength, a 3G/4G toggle setting, and help with those random reboots many users have been seeing.We can't be 100 percent positive this is the final MR2 release (and we've seen a previous leak bork things up a bit), but it's signed with release keys and certainly looks official. If you feel the urge (and we don't blame ya!), hit the source link, heed the warnings, and give it a try.

FROM ANDROID POLICE
From Chingy and TeamAndIRC comes Maintenance Release 2 for the HTC Thunderbolt. The OTA update should be hitting stock phones on June 15th, but we’re giving it to you early.
The major improvements brought about by MR2:
Un-rooted Stock MR2 Update
First up, the full, signed RUU. (This is NOT the same as a simple OTA – it is a full "image" of a phone running the new MR2 update) This is for you developers or stock users who wish to get the update early. Be warned, however, as this will wipe data if installed. Also, installing this over a rooted phone WILL brick it.
