[Forum Game] New Thunderbolt goodie? UPDATE: One of us is right!

[Green_Laser]

WTF we need the guy from The Da Vinci Code.

Hahaha lol. :-D
I just got to page 30 from where I left off in the beginning. I must say this did make me laugh hehe. I had to come back to pg 27 to give you a +1 for that one.

This thread has grown so fast that even LTE won't help us read all in a normal fashion.

This is sooooooo much fun!!!!!

Froyo to Gingerbread, then the 42 part, Android 2.4 = Ice Cream

eh.... my brain is hurting

and it seems to be this is TOO well articulated to be random clues from people without them being planned

I still think this is an ARG

I think the cupholder part is a DOCK with LANDSCAPE, they do have the ATRIX 4G as competition right now, and it has a couple of docks, quite expensive ones but still, VZ gotta step up there game to make up for the lesser specs, but its still a fast phone even without dual core.

I am right there with you about the DOCK with LANDSCAPE. It may be wishful thinking on my part but it makes sense to me.

under the select device tab it says load device error...

-- weird, it was working a few hours ago when I checked it. Could be a system update to add TB.

Hey guys i think they are up to something I haven't been able to pull up the Tech specs on it at HTC.com HTC ThunderBolt™ at Verizon

 

[Noloc0209]

ok. So i got this right. The bolt is going to be announced tomorrow march 2nd and will be upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3 for a price tag of $200 with skype mobile installed at launch and will have some sort of cloud storage thing with htcsense.com.

Does that about cover it all?

+1 _

I just followed your link... it says Android 2.2 + HTC Sense. Still a 1400 mAh battery too.

 

[NCX]

blehh, HTCsense.com is back up for me, nothing has been changed or added from the looks of it...

I think they do have the phone, but are waiting for the okay to publish their reviews.

Yeah, definitely an Embargo, notice they always publish the reviews shortly after the press release of a device's availability?

Engadget reviewed the Incredible before it even went up for Pre-order

 

[cheeta186]

This is all far to much for me, Im thinking I'll be going crazy at school tomorrow trying to figure this out and wondering what the h*ll is going on in this thread, I'm gonna get kicked out because i'm always on my phone in this thread, until my droid dies!

Just noticed it has the Qualcomm MDM9600. According to this site Qualcomm Looking Ahead | These are the Droids

"MDM9600 supports CDMA2000? 1X, EV-DO Rev. B, SV-DO, SV-LTE, UMTS, HSPA+ and LTE."

Does this mean it's a world phone?

 

[Stein357]

Actually now I don't think it's anything major.

 

[jaymoneyman]

I don't know a dual core? Would they have to open a redesign the phe they just probably messing with us and just pushing it back to see y'all wine about it. Unless it has godlike battery life I'm sticking with the atrix our waiting for the sidekick

Well it makes sense for most reviews of new products but why was wirefly given the greenlight what seems like an eternity ago. It's not even like it was one unboxing and then told to shut it down. They have walk throughs and comparisons. Just with no LTE active. And why not a finished product? It just seems like some loose ends need to be taken care of before a launch

 

[jpattersonlee]

I read a few pages and while I think it's way out there that they would swap the processor for a dual-core, here's a couple reasons FOR doing it:

1. Obviously, it's what's needed to keep it as a top-of-the-line phone for more than three months.

2. I hear that battery life is a problem. If they haven't found any other solutions via the software or battery itself, maybe a dual-core will help on battery life and prompt them to delay the phone and make it work.

I apologize if my second point has already been put out there. Just my two cents...

 

[kpageisgreat]

i really believe its something we already know about. maybe something new but hey im just a no name nothing speculating
