As much as I want to believe this to be true, I will put this article under the highly unlikely section. The latest “leak” of information on the web is about the upcoming HTC Thunderbolt. The rumor is that it will have a dual-core 1.2 Ghz processor. That’s not all; this report goes on to say the device will support up to 128 GB SDXC, will come stock with Gingerbread, and come with 8MegaPixel back and 5MegaPixel front cameras.
I don't know about you guys, but this is just a bit too fishy for me. It seems too good to be true, and HTC hasn’t shared information about it. Anyway, take it however you want, but if true, this device is just the bee's knees.
How would you like this device to take home in your pocket? Anyone believe this rumor, and if so, how much would you pay for this right now? Let us know how you feel in the forums.

As soon as it comes, it goes. Here is an update from Pocketnow.com (the original source) that I should share.
Update:
Well, we hate to burst your bubble, but MobileTechWorld has pointed out that the beefy MSM8960 chip these specs report the Thunderbolt as running won't be a possibility at the time the phone would likely start shipping. The availability of the MSM8960 to hardware designers won't even begin until next year, meaning it should be much later before we see it in any phones. And if that's wrong, who knows about the rest of these Thunderbolt details?
