Wouldn't it be nice if VZW would do the same with the TB! I mean, they're pretty much the same exact phone right?

The Inspire has 4 GB of internal memory and is expandable to 36 GB. The TB has 16 GB internal RAM and comes with the 32 GB card, making it have 48 GB out of the box.
Also, the LTE radio might add some further cost to the TB over the Inspire.
actually it`s 8 internal 768 ram and 32 gb sd installed for total 40 gb
I stand corrected. Sometimes it's hard to keep all the specs on these phones straight.

The TB also has a better CPU. They are not the same phone. Also AT&T has to do something to keep from loosing all of its customers because of it poor network. If you want cheap, change network.
no problem I`m starting to wonder if I should jump to the Atrix and forget TB, the way BB and VZ are handling this release date for the TB
Well Depth Afield then you have to understand that Bionic is using dualcore and has less memory but it is however using ddr2. For now don't worry about dualcore as OS is not optimized for it even if you do want it then go with HTC based, as thats what ill wait for even when Opt 2x looks good I won't go with it.
HKM said:Now keep in mind I know if anyone here understand how memory is allocated you will bring up case latency issue. B what you have to understand is yes ddr2 does have higher CL but since ddr2 runs at double external data bus clock rate as ddr it can provide twice the bandwidth at the same latency thus improvement over ddr.

First of all its ROM not RAM. Also you think storage justify the price? LOL lookup the NAND markup price for general consumer and convert it GB to dollar.
Seriously, if they're going to blame the price on that 32 Gig card...well they could keep it! There is no justification in charging what they are for the Thunderbolt. at&t has the right idea...$499 for the Atrix if your locked in the contract. I believe its $199 for the phone and $200 for an early upgrade...Worlds apart from this $749 being thrown around...its the principal, not the money in my eyes! If 4G radios are that expensive for vzw then don't produce them until price comes down. Not cool to rip off the hard working public.
Agreed. Folks that pay this much for a moderate chipset upgrade will feel punked in just a few months and especially late summer or the fall, when the Qcom dual core devices ship and more Tegra 2 options.
what exactly is going to blow the TB out of the water?
I dunno about that, unless there Quandrant scores are 2500+

You guys are aware that synthetic benchmark means nothing right? When we talk about Quadrant it will favor Snapdragon over Hummingbird due to the way ARMv7 set uses instruction set. However if you look at NS it scores 4000+ score and is the current highest device to archive that yet my MT4G beats it in performance.
How do I know all of this? I have done extended testing on all device up to end of jan. Now far as Hummingbird goes only good thing about it is the SGX540 which is slightly better than Adreno205(AMD Z460). Far as NS goes using TrinityOC kernel if you understand how its implemented using slab/sqlb you can score higher just on benchmark which will not translate in to performance. As MT4G is sharing same spec with DHD/TB with 2GS/768mb ddr/AMD z460 due to how memory is allocated it beats NS.
In simple term benchmark means nothing so don't let it get to your head and most people like us who due benchmark we "create" it that way as its not fake but its not 100% real also as its just think of it as lab testing lol as you will not able to replicate it as we modify it heavily to achieve it just for the "show". Also remember all chips are not equal as performance will vary even depending on the same line SoC's.
