NO it is not built into the board.....after you take the battery out..to the top right is the SD card......to the bottom left....there is a holder that slides out where you put the SIM card into.......

Yep. Bottom left according to the manual page 26 though. I'm not sure how I missed the Sim card. Doesn't matter to me. All my Blackberry's had Sim cards.

Good to know ...heading there now...
Unless somebody can point me to some information to the contrary, I'm pretty sure the TBolt will have the Qualcomm MSM8655 SoC with a 1GHz Scorpion Core Processor and an Adreno 205 GPU.
Qualcomm processors don't refresh until Q3 or later with their Dual-core SoC. It's expected to be a 1-1.2GHz dual-Scorpion Core processor. If HTC is going to stick with Qualcomm, then they probably won't be releasing a dual-core phone until the 2nd half of the year.
That sucks because I'm due to upgrade in August and I'm hoping that the phone I get has been on the market for 2 months or so. I am hoping for a dual-core HTC phone, since Android takes advantage of both cores right now.

You do realize the PowerVR chip is a GPU, right? That has absolutely nothing to do with the CPU.
The CPU of Tegra2 and the iPad2 are pretty much the same with Tegra2 having a slight performance advantage. They are both CortexA9 dual-core CPUs, with speculation being that the iPad2's implementation is underclocked to 800 or 900MHz (not a big deal at all).
Your comparison of GPU to GPU (GeForce ULV vs PowerVR) has no bearing on dual-core performance and utilization.

locked phone...? any word. the store by my house has no demo 
Verizon have a like 10 day trial? or something.. dont like the phone..give it back? ive been with Verizon for yearssss but never have needed to use the trail days. may come in handy this time if for some reason upsetting news comes in the first week of phone being out.

Just talked to the verizon store and the rep said that skype is working perfect on it. he told me that was why they delayed it so this is awsome
Yes, I'm well aware of all of that. Tegra 2 still had its ass beat in everything Anandtech posted during the iPad 2 preview CPU tests and the GPU test. Tegra 2 is always going to be paired with the Geforce ULV. So bottom line is Tegra 2 and it's GPU both got pimp slapped by iPad 2. It's even worse if iPad 2 is truly underclocked for it's A9 chips.

The cortex implementation is a core design, but vendors and manufacturers are given many different options to include or exclude, even boiling down to the type/complexity of the floating point unit, as well as the memory management. No two dual core A9s are alike, just as the snapdragon, hummingbird, OMAP 3630, and A4 are A8 BASED but different in design and potential power.
Saying the only difference between the tegra2 and the A5 is gpu and clockspeed is very mistaken.

Yes, yes I know all that but the bottom line is Tegra 2 and it's GPU got absolutely b-slapped. Period.
Besides this is starting to really derail the thread from its intended purpose.
Back to your regularly scheduled Thunderbolt discussion. dancedroid
i just got a call from telesales... to confirm that there will be no pre-order. lol dissapointing but oh well. Maybe a midnight sale. I literally and a football field's walk from a corporate store. Lol ill be nice a buzzed by the time this thing is on sale, good times.:icon_ banana::icon_ banana:
