Thunderbolt Pre Announcement Waiting Room & Availability Thread.
- Thread starter TBolt2011
- Start date
I HIGLY doubt that. It would be very unprofessional and could come back to bite them really hard. Now that being said I'm sure there is some isolated giggles over our fanatacism...
Also, it is a misread that he said TB in summer. He said they will have LTE PHONES (plural) available by summer.
I used my own email. Why would this matter? Not to be a ass. We need people to overload them with emails. Tweet it facebook it what ever it take. Email them till they freakout.lol
I was reading "Coming Out With a Bang: Verizon?s LTE Lineup" and I thought I would share. Sorry if this has been posted before:
"Verizon is pre-loading Skype?s mobile video chat app and Electronic Art?s Rock Band multiplayer game onto its new LTE smartphones."
Rock Band? That might be fun, but I think I will delete it within the first few days.
"[Verizon Wireless spokeswoman Brenda Raney] says Verizon is on track to launch the remaining nine LTE devices within the first six months of 2011."
If the ThunderBolt is not released in Q1 2011, here is the "promise" that it will be out in Q2 2011.
"Verizon also will have to prove its devices can handle seamless handoffs between its EV-DO network and its LTE network. The launch of Verizon?s first two LTE-capable USB dongles went fairly smoothly, but the company had to issue a software fix on the devices after users reported delays of up to two minutes when the devices tried to switch between EV-DO and LTE. It remains to be seen whether users will experience similar issues with Verizon?s other LTE devices, but Verizon appears to have been able to solve the problem on its USB modems fairly quickly."
Perhaps another reason for the ThunderBolt delay?
"Announcing a phone is just announcing a phone," Raney says. "We fulfilled a commitment to our customers, and that?s the difference."
So where is our ThunderBolt release annoucement? Where is it already?

Fascinate: GPS does not work, 6 months no Froyo
Droid X: Multiple problems
Storm: 'nuff said
If Verizon has a policy of releasing perfect phones, it's a relatively NEW policy... like, it started yesterday.
"Now Available" does not even annoy me it's the no price that pisses me off.
in my opinion, i believe the TB will still be just as fast as the bionic. if not, it will be faster. after seeing one of the hands-on videos it looks like the bionic is going to be a bit "choppy".
First: SMH.
Second: LOL. Seriously Phandroid? Do you have to use Droid Life's watermarked images when you re-broadcast news?
the phone is going to be released tomorrow...I can just FEEL it! (What, you guys gave me hope with this stupid ad!)
wow - I didn't even see that! miscellaneous caps and all...which brings me to the thought, maybe the AD is fake...they've got a marketing team - would they put this out?
its also grammatic incorrect.

did a three year old write this ad? I'm not the best at grammar, but COME ON!
Makes it def seem super fake.

Not to mention the capitalized letters at random. Maybe Ben5 is behind this. Maybe there is a clue hidden in this ad.
