How quickly do you guys think the Thunderbolt will sellout online tonight?

[Forgetful]

It's not going to sell out. Despite the echo chamber that is Android Central, the majority of the general public know nothing about this phone despite the cryptic ads that have run and there is no hype for it. This is not the iphone, so I wouldn't worry about ordering one or picking one up tomorrow.

Exactly what I was thinking but too lazy to type out.

It's not going to sell out online. There are screen shortages like with the DInc. The higher price is also going to be tough for the general non-techy public to swallow.

If you want this phone, it won't be hard to get.

Been asked before and I will ask again. Any idea what time EDT it can be ordered online?
TIA

Wirefly took a good chunk of lot of our online sales, so not as fast as you would think. I would still try to order it right when it becomes available.

I know nothing about Twitter. Is this real? Says here will be available starting midnight. Verizon Wireless (VerizonWireless) on Twitter

You can also get the TB for $179 from Amazon:
Amazon.com: HTC ThunderBolt 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless): Cell Phones & Accessories

How can Amazon charge $80 less on the release date? Anyone with knowledge on the subject?
