Eh. Doesn't sound appealing. I'd say keep at $30 and do caps/tier plans or bump up to $45 with unlimited data. They're insane for doing both - pure robbery.

Just got the news that vzw killed off the $15 data plan...hmmm, I think the TB is coming sooner than we all think people, however does anyone think that it will be MANDATORY to purchase an LTE data package?

This better be what they do... if the only option for 4g is $45 then I will definitely be waiting for the incredible 2 or the droid x 2 which blackmanx said both would be 3g only. Don't screw this up verizon :angry:!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rep I talked to today said hes opinion was that the plans werent goining to change the way he said it was like giving me a hint but who knows we'll find out soon.
MY opinion is they might charge the extra 10 bucks to stay competative, and the way VZW is talking about 4G. how fast it is and how all this new phones are goin to be able to be used as mobile hotspots, then I dont think they would cap the data cause they know that alot more people will be going over 5gigs

Thunderbolt

Well my husband bought me a new phone for christmas, I hated it so we returned it. I then found out they we going to be releasing a new phone at the conference in Vegas. I have watching this form and I have been reading quite a bit of articles, I read that it should come out February 14 so I decided to call Verizon. I just got off the phone with a rep and he confirmed that yes it is coming out February 14. He is not to sure about pre orders yet but he said he is going to training tomoorow for the thunderbolt. I am so excited I can not wait. Yeahhh!

I just don't see how it could be a Monday, verizon normally releases phones on thurdays so I just don't see it happening on the 14th.

Could be for pre-orders. Gives you three days till the phones goes on sale - February 17th. That might be where people are getting the 14th - assuming it is coming the 17th anyway.

Verizon reps don't know what they're talking about, he just had to tell you something to keep you from jumping to a competitor. I guarantee that Verizon will not release any phone that close to iPhone. Late Feb is much more logical.

 

[Bigdaddy1207]

From what I have seen its either going to be in the next couple of weeks before the iPhone or the week right after, but I guess only time will tell.

I have a friend that works at a vzw store, he hasn't been told anything but has had tbolt training already.

[Bigdaddy1207]

Yeah, I don't think that it's going to come that late, end of feb at the latest.

 

[ythot26]

I don't see anywhere on there that mentions a March 23rd release date?
