Thunderbolt Pre Announcement Waiting Room & Availability Thread.

Well I said in a thread yesterday that I was told the 28th in store (but even the rep admitted that he wouldn't rely too heavily on it at this point). That means nothing at all, but hearing that people are getting calls about it... That's a bit different >.>

yea thats def a bit different, and i'm def doubting these calls are actually being made but i really hope i'm wrong
 
Please close thread. Do we need another one of these? My god I wish people would stop.

I feel your frustration but why do you keep commenting on every single one of them. Just don't pay it any attention. Yes it gets redundant but it's ok for people to share their stories. We are all excited
 
That was very nice of the Verizon representative. I stopped riding this emotional wave a week and a half ago. I don't blame any Verizon reps who are trying to pacify people (possibly for fear of some equivalent of a cell phone terror attack) but I think we've already learned to not trust any information until the phone [in non-dummy form] is in our hands.

It'd be great if it was tomorrow. I hope that the Verizon rep calls you back at the very least.
 
it's all just a big marketing ploy people just like lightning! basically everything builds up and gets charged and snap! there it is! A Thunderbolt!!

That's my dream and I'm sticking to it. Come on 24th! :):)

And yes... I feel disappointment building... uuugh!

That's exactly what I've been saying but no one will listen lol


SN: Why did my other posts get deleted I didn't do anything wrong...w/e
 
Lol he tries to be all worldly and tells us to go check out CNN or Fox and then writes about 'Samalians'. What the hell are Samalians? If you are talking about people from Somalia, they are called Somali or Somalian.

I would spend a few more hours on CNN before you come over here and try to teach us life lessons...

Well thank your insightfulness. I've learned something today.. Most people can not say that.
 
Regaurdless the op has a good point. No amount of whining is going to make whatever is responsible for what hasn't even technically been a delay yet (since no date was ever claimed by Verizon) get fixed any faster. We should be focusing our energies on how awesome this phone is going to be... ...I for one can't wait to see what Skyraider cooks up for this Beast...

ZOMG! Somebody gets it! THANK YOU!:p

Please hold for a Verizon Wireless sales representative to assist you with your order. Thank you for your patience.
You are now chatting with 'Crys'
Crys: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?
You: Hi, I am actually tying to decide whether to stay with verizon (VZW customer 10 years now) or switch to T-mobile due to every carrier other than VZW having 4G phones on the market
Crys: Verizon Wireless
You: Yes, but it keeps getting delayed, That is the only reason I have not switched yet - do you have any idea on the release date yet?
Crys: Unfortunately, we do not.
You: Hmmm.. any idea on a projected month? by weej two of march, or not even that specific yet?
Crys: We are not provided with any details at this time. We find out the same time as the public.
You: OK, thank you Crys
Crys: Thank you for visiting Verizon Wireless, I look forward to speaking with you again. Have a great day!

I really don't want to read any more rumors and to me, Facebook is the ultimate rumor generator - it's like rumors on steroids to the max. The only way I'd believe this was if it were posted on VZW's own website or a story published in a legitimate newspaper.

As excited as I was about getting this phone a few weeks ago is as UN-excited as I am now. Today (and for about the last week and a half) it's become just another phone that I'll believe is for sale when I see it on the store shelves or for sale on VZW's website - and that does NOT mean pre-ordering the blasted thing either. We've all seen what a joke that is.
 
I agree with Cory. Anyone making personal derogatory comments about other users should be warned and, if they don't stop, then banned from the forum. It's a forum where we agree and disagree and so forth. But personal comments like "fat" or "moron" should be out of bounds.
 
Anyone putting money on tomorrow? I will stop by my local VZW store but I'm not getting my hopes up.
 
Just got off the phone with a local Best Buy and the mobile rep said they just got their shipment and will most likely be releasing tomorrow...Don't flame me, just saying what they told me....Still trying not to get too excited...
 
You mean this call....

doesn't really prove anything, i'm not saying your def lying or anything but can't blame me for being skeptical with all stuff that floats around on the web like i said i hope you guys are right i really do, but unless its proven that these calls are widespread coming from both best buy and VZW more VZW then best buy cuz we all know how unreliable Best buy is or VZW makes a official statement i'm not taking anything anyone says on here as fact i'd have to be foolish to do so
 
LOL! You can disavow a single store... or a single Best Buy as being rogue in what they're saying. When you call stores ALL OVER THE COUNTRY (as evidenced here), it's safe to assume they are working off of communications on those dates.

Best Buy didn't make it up. So where did they get it? Random Date Generator? Or maybe... just maybe... Verizon told them that was the date they were heading toward.

You don't know they got the information from vzw. For all anyone knows they could have gotten their information from here.
