There's a storm brewing...

Sorry if this has been posted, but it's good for a laugh or three:

YouTube - iphone 4 vs thunderbolt

Awsome. You know this exact conversation has actually happened thousands of times.:'(

 

[blueyzfr6]

I couldn't take it anymore so I bought

Hopefully I can mount the Thunderbolt to the bike when I do a trackday and use "My Tracks". Hopefully by then Google will have a "Level" incorporated into the My Tracks; so I can record my lean angle and acceleration and deceleration around the track.

Has Mr. Be5n posted here today? I bet he is swamped with iPad crap.

this may or may not mean anything, but a friend just copied/pasted me a new retail position that just popped up from his marketing company:

The client is HTC
- Launch date is Saturday, March 19th
- Duration of program is 10 weeks, with 100% attendance
- The focus will be on the brand new THUNDERBOLT phone, with an emphasis on the SENSE operating system
- Up to 8 hours on Saturday and 8 hours on Sunday
- Each day looks like:
o Starts with a 6-hour assisted selling day in a Best Buy (a different location on Saturday and Sunday but the same 2 each week)
o 2 visits to a nearby Radio Shack (approximately a 30 to 60 minute visit depending on size of store; 2 different locations each day but the same 4 each week)

Hope he's not boxing his belongings from his desk and being walked out for sharing.

I saw an HTC employee talking about this type of temporary position on twitter a couple weeks ago. It was in the Califormia area.

Edit: Specifically, the HTC employee that posted the original TB unboxing on youtube before pulling it.

Edit 2: even more specifically: "Anyone interested in a job? We need HTC reps for a few upcoming weekends. If you love tech and you want some $ send me a message!"

That would look good for a 3/17/11 Launch

 

[thisiscrazy]

Bennnnn, do you think that Verizon will offer a pre-order on the Thunderbolt?

 

[robdec17]

Why Radio Shack if Best Buy has exclusive retail rights?

 

[whiteshadow001]

OK gang...ONE MORE WEEK OF WAITING......

So who is grabbing right away and who is gonna let the dust settle first? I am want to let the dust settle first...IF I have enough self control!

 

[prakash99]

All VZW corporate employees must be pushed to their limits for tomorrows "big" launch. Bennnnn probably won't have time to go for lunch let along jump on the forum to tell us the phone is "coming soon"
