The more we think we know, the less we really know, and all the sites are really just echo chambers for Bull$h!t

Thunderbolt Launch Slips to February 28th › AndroidGuys

And I seriously doubt this or any postponement has anything to do with the iphone.

bummer but ohwell.

still waiting for an official announcement

 

[biff6789]

If true, that's only 4 days later. Not a HUGE deal. Could have been much worse

 

[Sploinkin]

Can (and probably will) still be worse

With how accurate weathermen are with their predictions, we should have known that the TB would never be released when anyone said it would.

This guy works for VZW and says that they have an in-stock date of 2/23 in VZW stores, which points to a 2/24 release.

Let's hope he's right. I wonder what Vegas odds makers are giving for 2/24?

I'm with Paul: Still keeping hope alive for the 24th.

We have 100 rumors saying it's the 24th and only one (unsourced) rumor that it's the 28th.

Could be some sort of last minute dealy... But if you were in Vegas, with odds like that what would you put your chips on

EDIT: HA! Two Vegas references back to back

He's about to post a screenshot too, assuming he can find someone to host it. LOL

@Raunchy_Jesus We haven't "changed" the Thunderbolt launch date - since we haven't announced it yet.

This is only making things worse for Verizon now that the Atrix has been confimed to have been pushed up. I'm still waiting for it though.

Droid Life pretty much wrote about the same thing but their source seems to just be a forward that someone from either here or from AndroidGuys gave them.

My money still on 24th.

Here is the PO showing the 23rd delivery from gallandof over at AndroidForums (identifying details removed):

 

[biff6789]

If every store holds only 18 (like that invoice shows), then you better pre-order if possible or get to the store first thing in the morning the day they come out

how pathetic am i to try and scan the barcode for info..wah wah waah. oh well, i am expecting the 24th and will deal with it if it is not then.

 

[dispatcher0531]

I was just as pathetic as you Brum...I tried scanning it too.

Our store shows the in stock date of the 21. We have no street date meaning we may actually sell before the 21st unless VZ updates us and tells us not to.
