I finally know how crying wrestler fan feels

Eudaemonic · Mar 11, 2011

I need to cry more - yea, you heard what I sayid.

theacoustician · Mar 11, 2011

What would I have to offer up to entice Ben^5 or BMX to appear and give us some glimmer of hope?

EvilMonkey · Mar 11, 2011

Wow, it looks like the trail went cold. You know its dead when we start talking about grown men crying and wrestling and no one cares to point us back in the right direction.

sorry mods, i couldn't resist... but, i do think i am going to start using that mantra to keep my hopes up about the 'bolt.

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMMIT!

Sadly, the guy probably has a lot of weapons at home.... :eek:

Well then, there ya go...

Ho, hum, another rumored launch date (March 17) for the HTC ThunderBolt | Android Central

Filinator13 · Mar 11, 2011

Yeah at this point I feel like it's coming, it's real, and it will get here when it gets here.

I'm sick of everyone just picking every Thursday or Monday for a potential release date...it's just getting kinda old.

Given the results to date (date is pegged, they miss, they rationalize, rinse repeat), either they are not "real", or they are realizing the information they are getting is not real. Either case, it probably ain't real.

I can and often do, but you need a microscope to read them.

Threaten that I'll start a conversation with them if they don't give?? :eek:

This is the info the store managers get for product update status. If real, folks should be able to check a store and ask. If not, it is faker than Milli Vanilli.

Exactly. I used to pick a date that seemed most accurate and tell myself that is when I can go get it, now I just think, that would be cool if it will came out Thursday, thats only 6 days away. It seems like it is always less than a week away...

I think it's quite real and completely jives with other large engineering projects I've been a part of. Target dates move. Things happen. You have to be nimble and adjust to the current situation, especially if there were unforeseen circumstances not accounted for by the project management team.

Now, are they really in the roles that they claim or are they part of the PR squad? That is definitely debatable.

Regardless of the release dates, I sure am interested in the Samsung LTE hotspot. I guess this must be the new name (or technology) for the Network Extender? Or, is this more like the MiFi? Would have been interested in the Trophy, but the specs at HTC say CDMA/GSM only. No LTE.

robdec17 · Mar 11, 2011

Thought the latest rumor was the HTS Trophy was delayed till June? Wonder how up to date this doc is?

leehblanc · Mar 11, 2011

it says "March 10, 2011" at the top, so i don't know how much more up to date it could be.

Red Devil · Mar 11, 2011

It is increasingly looking like the wait is coming to an end

Another thing in our favour is that with Daylight Savings kicking in this weekend, we will be one hour closer to the launch
