My friend went into best buy yesterday.. they told him that they have a 60day exclusive on the TB.... haha..

im not getting excited til I hear an official release from VZW themselves...

Connections you say? When in march do these connections tell you?

They should have had firmware and all this crap fixed up by the time they set the first estimated time, or at least extremely close to it.

It getting pushed back as many times as it has, is getting ridiculous.

You would think but No, we have to cater to a fruit's freaking whim first

Cult of brand, buying a product for the brand, and its sad, it really is.
Nobody can honestly tell me after looking into both the phones that in your right mind you would get the iPhone.
I mean, I understand its preference, but there are tons of other options that are clearly better than the apple garbage.

It would be like be going in today and upgrading to the original Droid.

But I guess its whatever they can get away with in sales....

Guys just got word that it will be released the 28th at work. Sorry if this has been said

sent....

Will be great if it does, thats the exact day of my upgrade, but at this point I am not putting much thought into it.

You can't honestly tell me that if iPhone 4 was called Droid Incredible 2 that you wouldn't already have one and be singing its praises.

2 best buys here in Jacksonville, FL just said the same thing when I called them.

That they got news today saying it was pushed to the first week of March.

Lame, I need a phone asap.

You're telling me! I am tired of holding my hand up to keep pressure on the string. The can is showing signs of failing soon too.

I got word from a guy who knows some other guy who shines the VZW CEO's shoes, and he said it was getting pushed back b/c the illuminati said the phone was to advanced for common folk.

Just trying to add a little levity...

I don't care if it was called Droid McUberFab 2000, if it has an Apple logo it won't be in my pocket. And before you start calling me fanboy, there are a number of reasons this is the case. I think Apple has great bulid quality (generally) and their hardware looks nice, if a bit to glossy and bubbly for my taste.

It's the company and their closed system I don't care for. They are now trying to force companies that require subscriptions for their apps to give Apple 30% right off the top or it's not allowed in the app store. Their last two major devices (iPhone and iPad) had names that other devices were already using. Now they want to name LightPeak in their hardware Thunderbolt.

I really just don't care for the way they do business, so they will never get my business. Not to say all other companies are above reproach, but having an HTC my hand doesn't leave a bad taste in my mouth.

At this point I don't really trust anything Best Buy has to say about the Thunderbolt.
