Thunderbolt Pre Announcement Waiting Room & Availability Thread.

[akhi216]

Just for your info. I work for VZW we were supposed to have a conference call tomorrow (March 4, 2011) at 7:30 AM reguarding the TB, I was just informed by my bosses that it has been cancelled, with no explination, but we did receive more accesories and promo material today so I know its coming soon.

By the way I have had the opportunity to play with this device for a limited time on 4G and it is awesome

Did the battery life suck?

I just walked out of a VZW corporate store. They said they don't know what's going on anymore, only that a new batch of testers just started, so expect end of the month...

What does "a new batch of testers just started" mean? What testers? Testing what? How?

I only had about an hours worth of time with it. didnt appear to drain it to much, but that was only an hour.

Am I going to have to pay for the 4g LTE service with the TB or will I have the option of just keeping my $29.99 plan and using 3g?

Do a search and you will find your answer.................probably about 100+ times.

I'm so over this phone.

I know it is tough slogging! Think about the fact that is thread is (in part) called the "Waiting Room"....this is like the longest waiting room ever. I think we are just doomed to the fact that we all have either jumped on the phone too early or Verizon really is struggling with this launch! Best I can think of with the limited knowledge we really have!

Well we know the phone is not coming out tomorrow....what I can't believe is someone actually wrote a whole article and sourced it "according to Best Buy" employees.....

Sorry if this was posted somewhere else, but has anyone seen this?

[hitman92499]

Yeah I saw that too. The new big tweet. I hope they're right...

 

[lady.grey18]

Me too. I am soo ready for an announcement. With HTC threatening to pull the commercials if something isn't announced in 48 hours seems promising too.

 

[hitman92499]

Verizon already pulled their commercials. Not sure if it will phase them for HTC to do the same.

 

[lady.grey18]

When the commercials went out today, twitter was much more active about the TBolt than I have seen in a while.

No commercials would mean less hype and less money for Verizon, cause less people would know about it and wanna buy it along with spend this kind of money.

 

[prakash99]

All this amibuity from Verizon reeks of something rotten

 

[hitman92499]

I imagine they're trolling the forums. And they also have been keeping track of the pre-orders. My local Verizon store said they have over 100 pre-orders. Well, at $100 a pop that's an easy $10k revenue. The word is definitely out and they know it.

 

[hitman92499]

We'll see what the rest of the day brings. We're 13 minutes in and no reveal yet. lol Good night forum!
