Droid Branding...?

[hoosiercub]

Does anyone know if Verizon is planning on slapping the 'Droid' branding on the Thunderbolt? I mean I realize not a lot of people know much about the phone yet, but I can't find this question answered anywhere, even half-ass.

I will want the device regardless, but I'm just curious as to whether it will be a DOLT or not xD

Source? Even HTC's website just says the HTC Thunderbolt with Verizon. No Mention of Droid anywhere, not at CES either, at least not to my knowledge.

I believe HTC Thunderbolt because HTC has the Droid Incredible and may come out with the Droid Incredible HD

Exactly... this is what it will be branded as.

Why do you say that though? Moto has more than one Droid Device on VZW, D2, D2G,DX,DPro.. why not the Droid Incredible 2 and Droid Thunderbolt?

HTC use to only refer to the Incredible as just that, now on their site is says Droid Incredible. I'm still wondering if we'll see a Droid branding on it, its ultimately at final say of Verizon since they're the ones paying for the licensing. I just can't see Verizon doing a phone as big as this, at least for them it sure is, and not slapping a Droid name on it, this phone signifies everything that the Droid lineup is about.

I think at one time it was a Droid phone but who knows it don't care if they slap Droid all over the phone just leave bing off

All i'm saying is Droid Mecha would have been cooler, But I still love you Thunderbolt.

In the bootup. you don't hear the DROID sound. That sucks, i love the droid branding.

Droid thunderbolt sounds perfect.

I'm fine with it just being called the Thunderbolt, and I like the boot up screen.

i hate the droid branding, because when you ask your "friend who doesnt know **** about phone" what phone he has all he said is, "a droid" which is f***ing annoying. [/rant] i believe the phone is going to be called "htc thunderbolt" because it says that on the official vzw comparison charts

I only like droid branding because it insures a google branded device. Other than that, it is just cool, like iPhone cool.

Personally don't care about droid name or branding, or the "droooid" sound effect. Not sold on thunderbolt either, but tbolt works.

Even though the DOIRD was the first brand to stand up and tell Apple to stick it? (Mobil) Yeah, it is a VZW/Lucas films thing, and I wouldn't suspect everyone like it. DRRROOOOIIIIIIIIIIID! baha

I love the sound of the Thunderbolt at start up, don't change it.
