Re: I willing to bet that we don't get a software update this mon
I want it because of the improvements. This phone has not lived up to it's original advertisements.
I would like to get what they said I was paying for.
4 more days and counting..................
Being a techno junkie I feel your pain.
I was talking with my techno illiterate friend the other day about cellphone technology and where we came from to now where we are. He has a basic cell that doesn't even have a keypad on it and he send me long messages. I tell him the benefits of a keyboard, but he tells me he is ok.
The problem I have with the argument of "they promised me this phone would do this or that" is that they can only:
1. Do so much with a technology. I know the TBolt isn't that old in human years, but in techno years, it is middle aged or at least approaching the HILL.
2. When you bought a car say in Jan. of 2011, you know that the new models will be out in the summer time. They never sold you a car with the promise of "Well, we know this car isn't perfect and the new models come out in 4 months, bring it back and we will upgrade it for you". They only fix things with a recall. The TBolt hasn't been recalled and we (ME included) are demanding a upgrade to our phones. HTC and VZW are going to give it to us, but we just have to be a little more patient.
When I bought my TBolt, no where in the paperwork does it say "Look, we know this is running a current software version, but, pssssssssst, in 6 or 8 months we are going to OTA it with a newer one". They never made any promises to upgrade software....they have fixed things with patches.
But with all that said, I am too looking forward to the GB update, not because it is promised to me, but because I am a techno geek that likes to tinker around with my phone.
