When Will the ThunderBolt Be Available for Purchase

[Its TwiX]

Does Best Buy know that March 4 is a Friday?

Just further proof that they have no idea what they're talking about - ever.

I guess you could always stop by and pickup a $120 HDMI cable.

Well... at this point I think any release date for Verizon wireless would be okay for them. And I'm pretty sure there's no rule saying they HAVE to release on a Thursday. It's more of a habit.

*COUGH* HTC ThunderBolt may launch on March 3rd or 4th; unlimited 4G LTE data for $29.99 | BGR | Boy Genius Report *COUGH*

Agree might as well as wait for the bionic now feel bad for preorders people

From what I understand, pre-ordering from Best Buy got you a $50 gift card that I assume you use toward the phone when it comes in.

But that was, what, February 11? How many of you folks pre-ordered? Are any of you considering going to Best Buy and asking for your $50 back? I would - I mean, it's starting to get out of hand with the delays and if you decide not to get your phone you have to use your $50 at Best Buy.

Considering what Best Buy charges for many items - compared to the discounts you can get at other retailers and online - I'd say that's a raw deal.

I almost pre-ordered, and then realized I couldn't bring myself to pre-order a product that didn't have a release date.

Yeah, Best Buy is really screwing all the preorders over right now. I think I might just hold off until the Bionic comes out at this point. I mean it's only going to be an extra month or so after the TB comes out at this rate.

But you didn't hear about the release date?

I was just reading about the xoom. There is no flash / no working SD card and you have to mail it in for a 4G upgrade and they are releasing it.

How bad are the TB problems then??? None of the possible problems sounded that bad????

Bit odd... since Intel has no Trademark of Thunderbolt.

Verizon has the Thunderbolt Trademark.

Only Verizon has the Thunderbolt Trademark.

Yea this keeps coming up, but as TwiX has shown in the provided link to the image.... VZW has the trademark on the name.

When this phone reaches 88 MPH, do you see some serious stuff?

 

[Martin030908]

I think they're delaying so they can add this

to the TB.... because as we all know, it's what makes time travel possible!

The CEO of HTC came up with the idea when he hit his head on the toilet.

It won't be available until April at the earliest. I think the attached photo should be proof enough for everyone. Blog blog blog!! Tweet tweet tweet!!

Nope... I don't believe it for the sole reason being that April 1st is a Friday!

Cheers,

Sorry, sorry, sorry everyone - we should probably quit trying to having fun because it's off topic. I don't want anyone to get angry...
