Thunderbolt Pre Announcement Waiting Room & Availability Thread.

[lady.grey18]

I don't think they do either. Can't really blame them, the reps are probably the last ones to know anything, just doing what they're told. I just wish Verizon would say something, just acknowledge they are listening to us. I'd respect them more if they would say what's going on. I'm gonna buy the phone, just wanna know what's wrong.

I dont believe it. Not untill I hear it from VERIZON

Advice for all of us to live by right here. I simply don't believe anything at this point. BTW, your "Verizon Reps" don't know **** either so they're lying to you... or they read this forum haha.

Agreed. Unless there is an official statement or announcement, the reps are as speculative as we are. Some just don't admit it. At least the reps at my local Best Buy stores have been honest and tell me they have no information about the release date every time I go there.

I'm not going to believe it until I see video of the CEO or COO reading the release dates while holding today's newspaper.

Announcement, Announcement, Every one on this Forum is ether aMaroon or a Nut. That gos for me too HA HA

I'm just curious to know if this there has ever been this much anticipation for a phone to be released? How does it usually go when a phone is speculated, confirmed to be in existence, then released. I've only been with Verizon for this phone I have now..I used to be with Sprint and I don't remember anything like this ever happening when I was waiting for a phone to come out??

Didn't they release the same (or very similar) statement last week?!? Nonetheless, at least it's something... in other words, "thanks for your interest in the TBolt. No, we don't know what the release date is yet."

Tell your VZ and Best Buy "reps" to stop lying... clearly if VZ doesn't know then how the hell do they!?!

Isn't this the same announcement that was posted last week?

very similar i believe only diff i think is they didn't say "We will announce its release date as soon as it is confirmed." or "we want to ensure the advanced technology behind our first 4G LTE phone is flawless."

i could be wrong though

Bad news everyone I just heard they are delaying it just so that it can launch alongside the movie Thor, opening in theaters May 6th. (not really)

Since this will be their first phone on LTE I just assume it has something to do with the network ramp up, not the phone.

If we go another 2 weeks without a date I might be able to hold out for the bionic if it releases in May.....

 

[Chrisy]

2 weeks? I'm going for the DInc 2 if TB is a bust!

+1 for me waiting to here the release date for the TB or the Dinc2

 

[upz3]

Same, to me its the same phone minus FFC and we already have confirmation (if the S is the 2) that it will get an update by June. No promise on the TBolt yet, though it's probably the same.

 

[Chrisy]

When is DInc 2 out? May?

 

[Guntherm]

Anyone heard when Thunderbolt II is coming out yet?
