There's a storm brewing...

Thanks Ben. You kept me from sleeping in the parking lot of BB tonight which is in a very shady part of town!

My director just left his meeting and has a little info on the subject.

Apparently, as we speak, they are building stock of Thunderbolts in warehouses across the country, and until Verizon is given the green light where they feel they have enough supply to meet the demand of the customers, THEN they will announce this device and give us a concrete launch date. We are also trying to push our last Droids ($100 discount) into consumers hands before the launch of this revolutionary device. I was told we are VERY close to being 100% ready for launch, and it seems that all that is truly left to do is finish up stockpiling devices and then the announce the HTC Thunderbolt! We should hear something ANY day now, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we heard something tomorrow since there was a scheduled announcement today which they missed. Anyways, we are very close guys. The Thunderbolt is coming, and it's lightning fast 4G LTE speeds are going to be in your hands VERY soon. Rule the air.

EDIT: Also to clarify again, I am NOT affiliated with Jerrryyyyyy. We DO NOT work together, nor do we know each other.

Excellent. That makes sense. Would rather wait to make sure I get a device then have a droid incredible incident.

Thanks again for all your info. If you're ever in NYC us new yorkers should meet up and buy you some drinks

Well then... here's to hoping we really do get some Onlive and Netflix love with the TBolt launch.

*Soon after the launch.

Excellent news! I can hardly wait until this phone is in my hands! Can't wait to do many new things (that my Storm1 can't currently do at all or very well).

Question 1: Where are these "warehouses"?
Question 2: Is security pretty good?....like guard dogs and dudes with guns?

Not asking for any particular reason or anything.....just a little chit chat...

Hah gotcha... well that's fine with me as long as the Bolt is getting them. Do you know if Onlive will only work in 4G areas? Or no details on it yet? I know it can be pretty unforgiving if you have a slow connection.

Hey Bennnnn,

Any idea when the Incredible 2 is going to drop?

So Bennnnn gives info and still not enough? Lol common peeps. It's coming, all in due time. Almost exhausting trying to keep up with these threads sometimes, to include all the flamming. And you wonder why people say AC is so negative..

Go Bennnnn, gives us whatever you got good or bad. It's only a phone.

 

[miss chris]

Bennnn, think we are still on track for a 10th release? Or will the delayed announcement delay the release as well?

I am not in-charge of shipping and stock. If I knew where the warehouses were I would have organized a plan to steal the Thunderbolts for all AC users! Muahahahaha.

He didn't say anything relating to a delayed release so I assume its the same.

 

[drew66]

Please, please be before the 14! My 30 day BB clock is ticking!

 

[amotter]

Bennnnnn, do you know if stores have ANY of them yet?

You know Ben we've been hearing "anyday" now for a month. Enough with the bull**** excuses. Not good enough!

 

[VideoEngineerAJS]

I'm actually excited again. I know so many people are tired of the wait, but it's not like anything revolutionary has come out yet and giving up and going to another phone is just going to make you wait even longer.

So let's just be excited about the fact that we know it's coming soon. I really can't wait to see how much of a difference LTE makes.

You're going to upset a LOT of people if this thread closes... The Mod said about 6 posts above yours that the language won't be tolerated, cmon...

Anyways, thanks a lot, Bennnnnn. It's appreciated.

In recent news, we have a new ad for the Thunderbolt! Looks beautiful.

EDIT: HTC - Mobile Phones, Smartphones, Cell Phones, PDAs

Yeah, HTC always does a fine job with their advertisements.
