How so?....

Good question, is the bootloader locked?

Talked to both local Verizon stores,, neither accepting pre-order and both say they will be fine Thursday stock wise,, I don't by it,, my butt will be there early

Double ETF? Yeah screw that. I'll see what VZW has to say for a 1 year contract.

yeah its verizon's $350 etf + Wirefly's $350 ETF. But wirefly's only lasts 180 days if i remember reading correctly, so not all that bad.

What does ETF mean?

Also, if Skype's not going to be at launch, so it won't be baked into the OS, does that mean it'll be installable on other phones (with a little hacking)???


Furthermore.. WOOOOOOOOOT!!!!! I've been waiting for this phone since November! Apparently Black_Man_X was right about everything!! I'm following him...

Woah page 20 of the manual.. this will come with stereo headset.. AWESOME!!!

Oh great, another junk set of earbuds to throw in the drawer or trash. I must have at least 8 of those that I would never bother listening to.

Why would there be a sim card? Verizon is on CDMA not GSM.

^^THIS!!
I will get the first good 4G (which is in my area) phone that has an UNLOCKED bootloader. I will not by a phone with a locked bootloader. Even if it's a 'voided warranty' deal (like on the Nexus devices) that's fine, but I want the option/ability to customize the phone.

The TB requires a SIM card to enable 4G LTE.

I haven't read anywhere about a sim card being needed. Maybe it's built into the board. I will let you know Thursday.

I usually get up at 5:00AM through the week, so I guess I'll just order first thing after I get up Thursday morning. I'll check the site up until I go to bed tomorrow night just in case though.

I'll be sitting on the couch Friday waiting for my TBolt to be delivered. The wait is almost over!

On January 8th I predicted unlimited data for nothing more
And on March 15th, I, like Charlie Sheen, am "Winning!"
