There's a storm brewing...

According to Bennnnn the device has been shipped.

i wouldnt rely on anything he says, he just spouts out things that have already been said, right after they have been said so it seems like he has info and adds more conjecture and opinions to it

I know. It was mentioned that VZW wants to ensure their deliveries made it (or are very close to being received and processed) before announcing a hard date.

Otherwise trucks/planes could be on their way to stores and then BOOM Sauron comes out from the ground and gobbles up a few hundred thousand T-Bolts. Naturally VZW will not be able to uphold their Thursday release date and would have to announce a new one...as well as discounted voice pricing as you try to contact your family and friends and flee for your lives.

"Eff" is an onomonopea for the letter "F," an abbreviation for another vulgarity banned on the forum. Such facetious language sets the post up as being casual in tone; thus the partial ellipse is both permitted and understood not to have the connotation of deeper pensiveness and melancholy. Also, "heffer" isn't a word either. You're thinking of "heifer.'

This is why we don't talk about grammar. When you exit the realm of grammatical perfection, the rules go completely bonkers. The phrase "Can I go to the bathroom" is grammatically correct, as is ending and starting sentences with prepositions.

Ok, so let me correct you - the word is "onomotopeia". So, now you can try entering that world of grammatical perfection again, this time correctly!

Just booked a "meeting" on my calendar from 8:30-10:00am on Thursday

Does anyone know if they are going to allow employee discounts on the tbolt? My discount is 18% for voice and 25% on accessories and "great savings on phones." Whatever that means. Haha.

I am getting an employer discount and they confirmed 25% of my monthly bill.

Our local verizon store in Chickasha, OK just called me and said that the TB will be sold on Thursday. Said they received info that devices had been shipped to them. Said they were only getting 10 so I need to be there early.

I am on a waiting list at this store. He was calling to confirm that I still wanted one.

I say this because Saturday, he told me that the release date was "soon" and he did not know a specific date.

Woo Hoo

My corporate discount is only on accessories I think 25% isnt bad though.

I will be getting from verizon because they are holding my NE2 hostage

I know you kinda hate me but I wanted to let you know that you should check into your discount because you should be getting in on your actually account as well. Every company I've worked at since 2003 has offered some sort of discount on my actual monthly bill.

 

[phantomog]

anyone getting calls from VZW which confirm 17th bother to ask about data plan pricing????

That made me LOL!

I dont hate you- I dont even know you! Thanks for posting that- I get 20% off my bill.

Does that include equipment too?

 

[thedeceiver]

I called my local verizon store... they said they just heard it was the 17th from their management team. This store had previously been saying "We have no idea when it's coming" so... FWIW...

EDIT: They have not yet heard of any data pricing changes... but they said that could change between now and the 17th.

Usually yes. I get discounts on accessories all the time...even the ones that are marked down.

Cool story, bro.

Isn't that against some ethical rule in that you can't "Cool story, bro" your own cool story, bro?

I guess we'll have to wait and see about the Netflix, OnLive and Google Music, if they come to pass or not.

I still believe the guy

but he's also the only one that told us about the NETFLIX/ONlive and Google Music coming to Tbolt. (Google Music for Gingerbread phones i'm sure)

BUT He also said about Gingerbread coming shortly after launch, which I have a feeling that HTC will announce more than just devices at CTIA on the 22nd, besides the new 10" tablet, I think it could be the full launch of HTCsense.com its been down for maintenance for over 24hrs now.
