There's a storm brewing...

[Craigboy]

Well, this is great news!

Obviously the release date is what Bennnnn cannot share, since he has not answered that question after being asked repeatedly. That's fine, we can live with that.

I'm guessing it was pushed even farther back.

Since you can talk about everything except that, Bennnnn, tells us all you know about Netflix, GM, Onlive, 2.3 (or 2.4), LTE pricing, device pricing, forecasted sales, Apple's impact on VZW's device roadmap, and what the delays were when it was initially moved up to Feb 14th.

Oh and the Samsung Stealth, when is that coming out and does it in fact have a duel core.

 

[WhitePhone]

It is not for phones. It's cards and modems I believe.

Its still 100% ridiculous.

 

[Geeksy]

It is not for phones. It's cards and modems I believe.

That makes a little bit more sense. Still though, eh?

Netflix and Google Music (with GB) will be coming to the device after launch. Onlive will follow. Battery issues on 4G LTE were causes of the delays, but since then, it has been fixed.

Nope, 1GHZ single core

LG Revolution isn't dual core either

 

[Bennnnn]

Stealth will be out shortly after the Thunderbolt. I've used it. Don't get me wrong, its a fantastic phone (the screen is amazing), but my heart is set on the Thunderbolt.

Okay then what's the reason for lack of an announced release date by VZW or you cannot discuss it?

I think I've asked you this before, but we might as well try to cluster the leaks some more, how is VoLTE looking? Besides looking like an amazing acronym.

 

[DroidATX]

Bennnn, if you guys need any help with getting things ready for the TBolt release, let me know. I'll drive a truckload to my local VZW store Promise!

B5n,

If someone has the unlimited $30 data plan. Will they be forced to switch to a LTE tiered price when they are released, if they own the TB? Or will they be grandfathered in and allowed to keep the unlimited plan?

 

[eloverton2]

Verizon just tweeted about the iPad data plan... sigh. I honestly don't see how an iPad2 conflicts with the Thunderbolt release. Is there really going to be widespread panic if both drop on the same day? Are people who are getting the Thunderbolt NOT going to get an iPad2 or Vice-versa? One is a phone, the other is a tablet.

Sorry after dealing with my Samsung Craptivate I will NEVER own another Samsung phone. Their Tvs and display devices are top notch but their cellular phones are lacking.

So the Stealth will be out at the end of March?

ACK, WTF? Now I'm blind! lol

lololol.

 

[tekhna]

Is there any reason to think this phone will come out before May?

The last hour on this thread has made it worth following!

Just started following the HTC Thunderbolt threads, and don't know if this has been answered yet...

Will Verizon have the $29.99 unlimited data plan available for the TB, or is Verizon going to a tiered data plan for all 4G phones, starting with the TB?

What will then happen to the new 3G phones, eg Incredible/Droid X 2, that are coming out?

 

[alcoholics02]

lololol.

what that is a really good question. the size and color are questionable but you can't miss it.

This totally makes sense, since Google Music seems to be working already
