There's a storm brewing...

So either the news Ben can't tell us is either its coming yet this week whether it be some announcement or something or its going to be the the week after the 17th cause as of last night he said the 17th was on track, but now its well I can't share the info, which is fine but it just sucks not knowing.

I'm thinking that device was a stock Android phone he mentioned after that.

can't remember the exact words, and i think he deleted that tweet since
but he said it was an amazing device that he would definitely be getting, but its far off. a second tweet said, sorry all, i gotta find out more and find out if its okay to talk about or something, but the device is not until 2012.

I am not doubting Bennnn, but from what was said in the news conference earlier, I don't see this phone coming this month. No way!!! I think that is why he is staying quite about it.

I'm with you on this. Either there has been a change and it's coming later than the 17th, or there is going to be an 11th hour announcement sometime in the next 70 minutes and the phone is dropping Thursday. I think I'll go with the "later than the 17th" option.

Ditto except for the "Thunderbolt or not" part. I am looking forward to this phone. I will probably post when I have questions but will definately lurk looking for tips and tricks stuff.

I would like to get the TB, but I hope there is still an unlimited data plan by the time it arrives. I would also consider the Bionic, or a new 3G phone, depending on when they come out.

I guess you could say I'm somewhat desperate to get a new phone...dropped my LG 8350 flip-phone and it broke in half, now I'm borrowing one of my kid's Samsung Intensity :-[

Is there a thread about the news conference (or a summery) somewhere?

I wonder if we can convince Be5n to go with the mantra "It's better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission."

There's quite a bit of discussion about it earlier in this thread, but I can summarize it for you.

Now you're beginning to sound just like Verizon official statements..

A low blow .

Ah, I should have known. Thanks

I am sticking with what Bennnnn said yesterday......"Now, in lighter news, I can now happily confirm that the Thunderbolt is definitely on schedule for March 17th and I do not see any more delays in the future. Best Buy stores should be receiving shipments a day early for pre-orderers, but don't to worry if you didn't; you will definitely be the proud owner of an HTC Thunderbolt in 10 days." -Bennnnn

 

[eloverton2]

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

I missed your response. yeah, its a good question. I asked B5n the same thing a few days ago and he reassured me that unlimited would be available when the phone first comes out. (too lazy to go back and search for it, but its in here somewhere). I believe him, since everything related to tiered pricing has a summer date on it- I just hope this delay isn't related to that...

When I saw those huge red letters all jumbled up, it just struck me in a hilarious way. No offense.

edit: days not weeks
edit2: it feels like its been weeks.

There will be some lame excuse on why this wont happen, Trust Me! We have been hearing this same thing for weeks now just with different dates attached to it
