I think you guys are going to be really disappointed. I just don't think they are going to release it this week. I haven't seen any TB commericals. I know some have reported they have but I haven't.
There's a storm brewing...

17th is still looking good guys. We're sure to hear an announcement very soon
Hopefully NOT accompanied by tiered pricing.
Every time I looked at the TV this weekend there was one on. Mainly the helicopter one but it was played quite a few during the ACC tournament this weekend.
I would except online sales a day or two in advance based on the Fran Shammo comments on 1 March about the iPhone launch:
"And I think right now so far we are very pleased with the results. I think the launch has gone flawlessly. I think we have learned some things from this launch. We've learned that we actually can teach our customers to go online. Over 60% of our sales have been online, which actually is very favorable to us from a cost structure perspective."

Ok..well maybe that's why I didn't see it because I don't watch sports. Honestly I DVR everything and fast forward through the commercials but everytime I'd see a phone commercial I'd stop and make sure it wasn't a TB commerical and it wasn't. I'm glad you guys are seeing them though..that's a good sign.
I would feel a whole lot better if we started seeing the VZW TB commercials. Once those start it should be very "SOON"
you all have to remember the keyword is SOON!!! I like alot of other commenters hope for this week as well. Tired of messing with Sprint with there subpar coverage and my Evo is at an aging old dying rate. Bring on the T.B.?!!
Sorry guys...
The Thunderbolt is going to be released on April 7th.
Why? Because my best buy return period ends on April 6th...
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.

Nobody panic....
This is where we* are at...we have the Panda coming out from the Lenten Bamboo shoots to give us some really big news...we have our Bennnnn saying that he is hearing that this is the status quo as well....I love NCX's analysis that we do not know yet if we are talking about pre-orders or the actual device...so let's keep an eye on that. But this is all EXTREMELY good news because what we really have is some convergence of the same news. I can tell you that what Panda said I had also heard about a week ago (have not posted on such because...frankly I do not understant the tech issues related to it, I did try to connect it a little bit better by asking NCX)....again convergence of sources is a BIG deal in my book. And it is happening right here on this forum (which is why I say "we" because even though we sometimes bicker with each other I think that is pretty dam cool). So, while it is good to be skeptical because we have been following this thing minute by minute, let's not let this moment escape us. This phone is going to be dropping this week or possibly next.

If you read the sources, Engadget credited at the bottom of the article, you will see that their story is just news from Friday being repeated.
Not to curb your enthusiasm, amotter, but many of the same experts concurred that 2/24 was in fact the date, only to be proven wrong when issues arose.
Its SOUNDING like things are in a place where they can release phone from a technical perspective but we've heard that before. VZW has had some serious challenges with this technology so, I'm not convinced they get cold feet about pulling the trigger this week.
Who knows.. I hope I'm wrong... I want to get my hands on that phone.
Agreed. I've noticed (and Panda discusses in his latest non-TB blog post) that Engadget is just a news aggregator site now. What was the last big news they broke? Nothing to see there, move along.
Sad state of affairs over there. I'm just hoping we're discussing what wallpaper we're using on our 'bolts by weeks end.
Gonna miss Josh and Nilay.

So WHERE will the announcement be made? Is there an official twitter account? On their webpage? Anyplace else?
