There's a storm brewing...

So does that mean that the battery life issues have been addressed and we can expect better battery life?

seems that battery life may not be an issue at all. read this thread - YEAH baby! My Demo will be here today! - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

 

[enfuego360]

now that is just hilarious! hey guitarchris123 do you have a bigger copy of it?

Thank you for all you do. You have been a ton of help around here. If you weren't here to balance it all out I have no clue what the forum members would say/do to each other.

On a different note, you mentioned Netflix as well as cloud based services will be released shortly after - Oh, including htcsense.com too which will be sweet! Though my question to you, can you confirm about skype as you did with the other features you mentioned above?

The vzw thunderbolt page removed the skype logo and only carries the Rockband logo (maybe for now). Will we be able to do skype video chat just as the reps were showing at CES (we know that was only a skype demo)?

Thank you.

There was more than a little sarcasm in my post, but it didn't come across too well. Thanks for not really ripping into me though

So am I to understand that if I currently don't have a data plan (feature phone) but get a data plan with the Thunderbolt on the 17th god willing I'll still be able to purchase the current $30 unlimited and be grandfathered in when the tiered plans go into effect this summer? Really thats my only worry as I plan to wait for the Bolt until at least April.

Yes.

Ahhhh...I didn't see that the panda had called the 17th...

He called the TBolt at St. Patty's and Bionic around Lent if I remember correctly


But uh Ben...

What if you don't get the phone on release date. How long does someone have to lock in unlimited @ $30?

 

[Cory Streater]

He's been verified by the Mods.....so ????

He has?

Yes, read this entire page:

http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-thunderbolt/64149-theres-storm-brewing-32.html

Yes he has.....

I'm going to put this in a couple Threads, but BMX is about to Blog about the Thunderbolt. He published it and then had to unpublished it to do some editing of it.

So wanted to give the heads up

Heh, no prob. Once a thread hits >100 pages in a matter of days, it gets a little tricky to keep up

We haven't verified the legitimacy of anything; nor should we. It was a misinterpretation of my post in this thread. That thread had gotten out of hand and a lot of people were accusing the OP of having multiple registrations. There were indeed a few of them, but it wasn't him. That somehow got misinterpreted as my confirming his identity; which is absolutely impossible.

 

[thedeceiver]

Cory is not vouching for him but iamlilysdad did and I saw proof as well that he is who he says he is.

I'm so done EVEN thinking about the Thunderbolt yes its a great phone but Verizon has screwed this release up and it's their own fault ontop that most likely at ctia in Orlando that Sprint will announce the Evo 2 i've NEVER seen a release date that NOW has been changed like 8 times yes i know these are rumors but still Verizon should just give us some information how does a company get a product which HTC has already stated that Thunderbolts were shipped to Verizon weeks ago there are also reports that Verizon stores have them in the back but they cant sell them until they are told they can i'm so through with the Thunderbolt I said if it went past March 10th I was gonna get another phone and thats what i am gonna do well I hope you all enjoy your Thunderbolts maybe by August Verizon will release it.

I'm with you on this! I'm giving Verizon until the 10th and if its NOT in my hand on that day I'm paying my early termination fee and leaving Verizon over this!!

And if it gets released on the 17th instead like they said on the previous posts, what would u do?

 

[SFGiants 2010]

Oh my, someone wrote this on Verizon's facebook page:

"The only launch that was worse than the Thunderbolt's was the Challenger"

Wow that's in really poor taste

I'm going to try to put this to bed one last time. None of us know anything. Trey misread my post, and the only thing iamlilysad has said is in this post.

Idk yet? Ive been following this phone now for 3 months now, so 1 more week wont kill me. I'm just mad at Verizon for letting Apple dictate when this phone can be released. I dont believe all the other rumors of issues with the phone. I think Steve Jobs had all other devices "delayed" so the iphone was the ONLY focus for Verizon

 

[Perwilly]

I'd echo jkemp63288. I'm in the same position, and feel the same about Jobs 'jobbin' VZW!
