As much as it pains me, I am beginning to think the 17th is not going to happen.

April baby... join me.

Vz managers don't know jack, that's has been proven. Just like other people have gotten on here today stating they talked to reps that said the 17th without hesitating. We will know on here when its coming probably before they would know.

I feel bad for the guy. :-/ If he really is a HTC employee I'd have to agree with the fired thing, and that sucks.

He won't get fired but he will get in some trouble.

I hope not, if the 17th passes I am going to put blind faith on the 21st!

So I go into the Verizon store today because I need to buy a new charger for my punk a$$ BB Storm2 and at the end of that transaction I ask if they have a TB for me to play with. I ask this because I don't see any TB advertisements anywhere in there, as opposed to Best Buy who has quite of bit of advertising including a dummy phone. So she says they don't have one for me to play with. I said, "you know you have a whole android community out there who is beyond disgusted with Verizon right now." She acknowledges our frustration..and mentions that she sees I'm eligible for upgrade. I tell her don't remind me!! I further explained that whenever VZW gets off its butt and releases this phone there's now way I'd buy it from them, that I'm going to BB instead because at least they seem interested in selling me the phone. Then she starts trying to make excuses for them and saying that we should want the phone to work properly and I told her we totally get that and yes we do want the phone to work properly, our problem is the deafening silence, the fact we don't know if we will have the phone this month, next month or the end of frickin' June for goodness sake!!! I mean seriously, I told her if I were her I'd be lookin' for another gig because after this refusal to care about this segment of your customer base AND the fact that Best Buy offers the Buy Back program no intelligent person would buy a phone directly from them anyway and for job security alone she should start lookin' into Best Buys and Nebraska Furniture Marts benefits and consider applying for employment with them because Verizon SUCKS!! She was polite but if Verizon didn't have the best network I really would switch to another carrier but their network is the best but that said I will never purchase another phone directly through them because this not knowing...UNACCEPTABLE!!!! -end of rant- :'mad:

Every couple of weeks I like stop into the local corporate store to courteously ask if they have any new information on the Thunderbolt. But @$$HAT$ like you give those of us interested in the T-Bolt a bad name and make the VZW reps have a bad attitude when we go into the store.

Be nice to the VZW reps. They're just doing their jobs with the information corporate gives them.

Ugh, not sure what to make of this one. Hoping "within a month" turns out to be the 17th still.

HTC Thunderbolt granted conditional approval by Verizon, could be on sale soon -- Engadget Mobile

Aaand Droid-life

I doubt HTC will take "two-Four Weeks" to make the approval! they already wanted this out a long time ago.

I have been a member of your "family" of forums for many years, Treo Central, Windows Phone two names ago, CB, even TiPb (gottta figure how to fix my daughters Fruit phone everytime she screws it up) and now AC. I can say that all of the sites have been invaluable in figuring all these phones out. The members and mods are the best and a lot of fun. I can safely say that AC has be the most helpful, friendly and easy going of them all.

You can ask a question and not immediately getting flamed because you couldn't find it in a search, and no answer too boot.

Keep up the good work.

Kinda makes me wonder where Bennnnn has been the last couple of days? I know the Ipad release, but surely he has had time to look at the forums. My guess is that he don't wont give us bad news. I can see him doing that, just because he has tried to keep everyone upbeat and calm, he doesn't want to be the one who has to drop the bomb on us. I hope I am wrong but its making me wonder.

He probably hasn't posted because there's only so many creative ways to say 'soon, but take that with a grain of salt'.
