I called at least 20 verizon stores with every single rep i spoke with said that 2/24/11 the HTC Thunderbolt be available. The range from Knoxville TN to Abingdon VA
@T Broadwater - Abingdon, VA - I used to live there. Great town. Go Falcons!
On 2/6 , the day I preordered, there were three folks working at BB Mobile. Two said 2/14 and one said 2/24. They were all looking at different screens on their computers. If 2/24 holds, the young lady with the straight dark hair pulled back in a pony tail and wearing glasses at the Pittsburg BB is going to look like the smartest person in the department. I don't know which screen she was looking at that the other two were not, but hooray for her if she is right. If not, then they all were wrong and it might be time to join the bashfest. Until then, I've got to give the third clerk her shot at being right.
Watching the bashing on the VZW FB page was pretty fun though...

Just left my local BB, acted like I was pissed that I didn't even get a courtesy call from them saying TB had been delayed and how can I get my $50 back. They said I could get it back if I wanted, but they are going to have it on the 24th and it's Verizon's delay not theirs. I said, well doesn't that mean you would already have it in the back since the 24th is only 3 days away? and he said they get trucks on Mondays and Wednesdays, and they do put product out the next morning after they receive it so it will either come in on today's truck or Wednesday's. I asked how many people have preordered and he said a lot but I am first on the list and I am guaranteed one. Blah blah blah but I am keeping fingers crossed!!
It doesn't take days to put out phones. In fact it's pretty easy lol. Once the boses come in, they put them in the closet behind mobile. Pretty simple. lol. Some stores do have them in stock already though. I thought mine did but i was mistaken.
Ok now, you've already punked on me for being a forum newbie...I could punk on your spelling but I'm too sweet for that...lol. Just sayin, I WANT MY PHONE!

Lol my bad if i came off as rude. I definitely wasn't trying to be. And i never spell words wrong. If i spell it wrong, it's actually how i meant to spell it. Im cool like htat.
Lol. Honestly I'm not sure why I feel I need it RIGHT NOW, because my area doesn't even have LTE up and running. Guess I just like the cool factor, maybe it'll rub off on me....lol
Yeah, it's like a little kid in a candy store effect. You want it because it's the latest and greatest. Welcome to my world, lol. 
Chris, here is a completely off topic question but pls forgive since I am a newbie - why doesn't my photo show up??
Are you talking about your Avatar next to your name? Are you sure it uploaded properly? We have a size limitation on Avatars, so if it didn't meet these requirements, it won't accept it.
