There's a storm brewing...

[NCX]

Hey, I've been waiting for this device since November. After using it, I want it even more now. Its definitely worth the wait in my opinion.

Not mad or talking ya down, but most of us have been following and waiting for this device since it was first leaked as the Incredible HD back in August.

We should have had it last year, but it was decided to have LTE added, which at the time would have been the right time to release that technology (minus the 4G LTE)

its because of that, that the EVO 3D could very well be more powerful
its Verizon's fault, they can't seem to get the high end devices like on T-mobile and Sprint from HTC

AGAIN, not towards you, my hostility is towards Verizon especially after todays webcast

EDIT: YAY, I won #2000 post

 

[pufidad]

2000?

I think I can read between the lines

How do you know what Steve Jobs said to vzw about to market his products ??

Ben^5 stated a few pages back that (paraphrased) "Mr. Jobs has nothing to do with the T-Bolt release."

I am saying that while an Apple device launch may be responsible, it has less to do with anything that Jobs may or may not have said and more to do with it making logical sense from a marketing mindset. Multiple big impact hits evenly spaced out yield much greater rewards than a single nuclear warhead. Almost every company in the world releases new products and services in the former fashion.

I'm not a fan of the iProducts any more than the rest of you, but these conspiracy theories only cause unneeded hysteria. We are all more than intelligent enough to think constructively as to why the T-Bolt could have been delayed from a release intended for the 10th. Don't give into anti-fanboyism just because it's the thing to do :/

I bet you this forum is going to be a ghost town the end of next week because everyone will be busy playing with the Thunderbolts. No, that's not a euphemism...or is it?

I'm still skeptical regarding Bennnnn but I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and take his word on this. He's the only logical source of info we. I'm just really pissed off with VZW and I haven't even signed a contract with them yet.

 

[chronic illusionz]

There is no Thunderbolt

Lmao. This really had me rolling.

But seriously, I'm giving it until March 17th. That's my absolute last day. My contract been up for almost a month and I can't take having no phone. By the time this phone comes out 5G will be out.

Mine.

Great. Your last definition of "soon" doesn't seem to be happening...

 

[Tortan]

Mine.

With your definition of soon, is the stair graph that was shown yesterday drawn to scale? (Distance over time)

 

[Guntherm]

I believe in Miracle's... you sexy thing... (Thunderbolt)..

I believe in Bennnnn.... Not so sexy.. LOL

I beleive the Bolt will come "soon"

 

[brobertsleo]

Just think, in a few months we're going to be looking back at these posts thinking how crazy we were over this device.

 

[dbgoolsby]

Oops. I think I took your quote out of context. My apologies jbh00jh.

 

[leehblanc]

Just think, in a few months we're going to be looking back at these posts thinking how crazy we were over this device that was never even announced, let alone released.

Fixed that for ya!

 

[dannyb884]

I really want the TB, but if the Dinc 2 comes out before it than I might have to pull the trigger on that. I have wanted VZW to come out with something like the TB since the Evo came out 8 months ago, but at this point I'll be good with any HTC device. (Sad no 4g)

Nope. There will then be 30 plus threads on "how do I", "battery sucks", "can I exchange" because a lot of new converts are only reading this thread and not how to actually use Android OS. Nature of the beast.

Glad I'm not the only one. What's sad is that Twitter is worse. Do not search for #htc #thunderbolt. It is terrible. One idiot says something stupid (cough LaidBackFarmer) and then everyone retweets like mindless sheep. Despite how much he bashes the T-Bolt and VZW, I bet that guy is going to show up at a VZW store at 5 PM next Wednesday just to be first in line for a midnight T-Bolt release.

Just think, in a few months we're going to be looking forward to the release of the Motorola Droid Bionic thinking how crazy we were over this device.

LOL @ Midnight release! NOT A CHANCE!

On a less comical note, I think we may even see the announcement this weekend if he says "soon"

They do make announcements on Thursdays too ya know

take a look at April 15, 2010 and see what comes up for them

Few months? Rumor has it at April 23rd-29th unless something has changed.
