Don't get to caught up in things like this. It's just as likely that HTC is just playing along...

Clarified to show that by "confirmed" I just mean that the specified conversation had actually occurred, not that it meant anything significant (at least not yet).
 
Don't get caught up in the iPad 2 release. It will not affect Verizon from releasing a phone around the same time. Releasing a tablet will not interfere with them releasing a phone. They know this phone has been pushed back long enough and when its ready to go... it will be released.

That is one of the things Bennnnn said just a couple days ago... two totally different devices.

pure.speculation.
 
I was at a local BB store to dispute some charges on my bill and after the problem was solved I started chatting with this friendly Rep who had a Fascinate and he also had been waiting for the Bolt and he also had no idea about the launch except the rumors on the internet.

He also said when he went for TB training they did not get to hold the actual device. The were just shown a video. He said there had been battery problems.

He however told me Manchester, NH area where I work will get LTE coverage some time in summer and was expecting our hometown area to get it by the end of the year. That was much sooner than what I expected.

No news that we have been waiting for but I just thought I should share my experience.

Bennnnn,

Do you know if the ThunderBolt will be available with a one year contract option at Verizon stores? There has been talk that Verizon was doing away with one year contracts, though that may just be fueled by Best Buy's decision to only do two year contracts. So any clarity you can provide would be appreciated.
 
If this phone does come out on the 17th, that will upset me greatly. Here is how my day will go: get up at the asscrack of dawn to go get the phone. Start drinking soon after because im Irish and it is law that I must be intoxicated by Noon on St. Patrick's Day (HEY! I DONT WRITE THE RULES!). Fall down by 9pm, break nice new phone. Wake up on the 18th and cry.

Fin.

Talk to your local BB and see if they can port your preorder to the LA store but you may end up at the bottom of the queue.
