[georgek]

Have an original D1, still going strong. I'm interested in the Thunderbolt for it's 4G capabilities. Can't wait to get this thing already.

Well I have tried and tried to stay out of this thread till later in the game, but REALLY Ipad2. grrr.. i have stricken apple from my diet at this point.. nothing more to say about that..

another note.. CM7 with Honeybread on D1 is doing great to hold me over till I can get my hands on the TB.. I got my Skype accounts up and going this weekend in hopes that either at launch or soon after all will be a go with the TB.. will be nice to be able to see my kids off to bed on the nights I work late..

To be honest, I'm pretty much over this phone...I thought it was bad that I had to wait 6 weeks for the car that I ordered...but this is pretty incredible. My VZW guy said that he just wishes it would come out already so people stop asking about it.

I won't have 4g til later this year or early next, so that's not a selling point for me. I am still on my original OG droid (never had any replacements *knock on wood*) and it's still going strong!! Oh well...on to the next...

This. The phone obviously has issues and the price has gone up $50 since it was first not-announced. I complain about my OG droid, but the truth is we are lucky to not be in the enV touch / storm 1 Boat that some people here are in while we wait for this whole thing to unfold.

While I wait for this phone, I have purchased a NIB iphone 2g to hold me over.:icon_ banana::iphone::icon_ banana:

Ill store it in the closet with the rest of my collection when I switch lol.

im pretty much over this phone TBH... ive been waiting for 7 months now i think!!! yea pretty dumb move thats turning out to be... but i will still get the TB if i can jump on the free 4g bandwagon but if they set a date on when the priceing plan will change u better believe im going to wait till the last second! Im starting to feel that 2 VZW 4g phones will be launched around the same time!!!

Agree Metzor.. I came from a Voyager in 2009 and coudln't imagine not having my D1 at this point.. Hard to remember life without Droid in it..

im not sure if a simultaneous launch would be a good thing at first i thought no way.. but the more i think about it the better it seems TB+LG same time TB+Samsung!!

i'm in the env boat. well sort of until i dropped it in water. now i'm using an even crappier phone. i'm beginning to think i should just get an incredible or x until this phone comes out. i'm going on vacation for a few days at the end of march and was counting on having the TB, now i'm beginning to think i won't even have it. the longer they wait for this to come out, the more people aren't going to get it (waiting for bionic, questioning if the tb will have issues, etc).

samsung now rumored to be a duel core now i think not sure tho...my current phone is a htc so its a tough choice for me cuz ive had 0 problems in 2 years but its startin to act up and reboot and stuff now... does anyone know the model sd card will be on the TB?

 

[atmcgill97]

You know whats even more rediculous, the fact that they can make a solid release date for the Crapple Ipad 2 which isnt even a friggen cell phone, yet they cant make a date for their first 4g cell. On top of that, the ipad2 probably was what pushed back the phone even further.

SO YOU KNOW WHAT VERIZON, GROW A PAIR AND RELEASE THE PHONE! :icon_evil::icon_evil::icon_evil::icon_evil:

From this day forth I shall refer to the Thunderbolt as "The Kraken". For the love of God Verizon...

@kparks, the wirefly vid showed a SanDisk. Figure it's a class 4. maybe 6.
