New Tweet:

(from @VerizonWireless) You have a choice between 2 identical-looking cars. One drives everywhere fast! The other fast - then OOPS! The network drops it.

maybe thunderbolt and evo or thunderbolt and inspire?
and the plot thickens!

Tossing more ingredients into the bubbling cauldron: What are the odds of VoLTE on the Thunderbolt?

 

[amotter]

I will go out on a limb here and bet 10 to 1 odds that nothing is released about the Thunderbolt tomorrow.
The same goes with the release date, the 10th will come and go and we will still not have the phone. I will paypal anyone who is willing to take that bet. Even Bennnnn!!

Dude....why do you have to be such a ******? If we get an announcement tomorrow...you will know he was right...if we do not we will know he was not and probably never hear from him again anyway....don't be a flamer! Be nice!

just got this when i wrote it. adds more to releasing a LTE call quality device.

Well and with data being on a separate antenna, for those in LTE areas, it makes dropped calls on CDMA a lot less likely.

i thought the revolution was first for that

Its been said that the Tbolt WILL have VoLTE when it becomes available( they are now testing it)..but that might be a year or more from now.

 

[htowngator]

The call quality thing is talking about LTE, it was tested that using Voice over LTE is extremely crystal clear call quality

anywho, and there asking "who" meaning Verizon = TWO-Marrow lol (sorry Bennnn I just had to lol XD

How would we find out tomorrow when VoLTE isn't even slated till 2012?

I believe the revolution will be released without Volte, but will also get it when it goes online!

It was the FIRST to be used in a TEST for volte by vzw though.

Agreed. I read it as both networks having a shared phone, but VZW's being superior.

If we have to share our tbolt....I hate to think of how fast the forums would explode....

 

[Geeksy]

Could it be possible that VoLTE is available much earlier than they expected? That ties in the VZNetwork tweet and makes the TB a lot better looking.

I subscribe to Occam's Razor, but this is just too good.

 

[jayishere]

Bennnn, did you mean 10 days from today? or 10 days from the 1st?

 

[amotter]

Hopefully they are touting the 3G and 4G markets together so as not to leave out the 3G only folks while they announce the first real 4G phone!

@VZWNetwork

"Who has the best call quality? Proof is in the pudding. Check back tomorrow to see who’s got the secret sauce."

funny funny

 

[Seminoles fan]

I am not being a ******, we already know he's full of it and if it does release on the 10th it will be pure luck as he can give no proof what so ever. If your so confident then take the bet. I just hate saying they are or acting as if they are something they are not and giving out false info just to get everyone excited and draw attention to themselves and then next week everyone will be disappointed because they bought this guy's crap. Just trying to prevent the disappointment, that's all.

you read too deeply into that, I was using that as the reference they made when LTE was first announced, there talking about LTE

and the Two cars tweet on two different carriers
could either be the HTC Inspire vs HTC ThunderBolt
or the iPhone 4 on both Verizon vs AT&T

eh.... i'm just gonna hope tomorrow brings us the news we've been thirsting (hmm quenching thirst.... two days... that sounds familiar)

 

[biff6789]

I don't think that's what that twitter post was saying, but I hope this phone DOESN'T get VoLTE...

Reports are that this phone gets 3-4 hours of battery life with the 4G radio turned on. Having to do VoLTE would completely nuke your battery.

Significant improvements in battery technology need to be made in order for VoLTE to be "worth it"

what reports? The battery issue was fixed in the last firmware update.

I understand you're a Seminoles fan, but you don't need to take it out on everyone else.

LOL, don't get mad, I'm just messing with you.
