[RELEASED] The 4.3 inch "Thunderbolt" aka "Mecha" aka "Incredible HD" from HTC...beyond coming soon!

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.
 
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.

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

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. ;)

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.
 
here, this might cheer everyone up:


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

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.
