Just to give you all an update, the rumored Gingerbread update likely will not hit June 30th. I do not know when it is really planned, if at all, however I checked the approved software list (when Verizon approves a software update for any device, it goes on that list immediately), there was no new software approved for the Thunderbolt.
Usually there is an obvious lag time between a software approval and the actual push data, so even if they approved it tomorrow, it would likely be as little as a few days up to a week or more before it hits your phone. It is usually announced publicly shortly after approval.
Example: The MR1 for the Thunderbolt was approved 04/29/11. Pushed to phones 05/20/11.
So sad to say I doubt the rumor of a June 30th or the official statement of a "second half of June" fix will likely not happen, but do not fret! It will be out soon!
