yeah...I signed up on Verizon's site a few weeks ago for Thunderbolt updates, but have yet to receive anything from them. Don't get your hopes up to hear anything.

When you mouse over the screen several points pop up. One of them says "Stream video at scorching 4G LTE speed"... I hope this is referring to an upcoming Netflix app and not just DLNA. I guess it could mean Skype too :S

No, netflix app. They announced at MWC that you need new unreleased hardware to make Netflix possible on Android. It's a security feature. Thunderbolt won't have it if it's being released soon. They demoed the feature on a LG Revolution. :(

Well the coming soon still shows on the LTE page, which this isn't linked to at all anymore.

Right now, any news is good news even if its not real news :)

I'm a bit happy the ad blitz isn't around today.

I'm actually really looking forward to this phone now.
VZW just announced my area, Metro Detroit, will be covered in 4G/LTE by the end of this week?

I don't remember hearing that you needed a new unreleased hardware to make Netflix possible. I remember hearing that you needed one of the newer generation Snapdragon processors to make Netflix possible. I think until we have a more definitive answer, one would have to think the Thunderbolt might have Netflix at some point. The Thunderbolt does have a newer generation Snapdragon processor.
