No more rumors for the HTC Thunderbolt, who has just gained a confirmed shipping date of March 17 via Wirefly’s email notification of the phone’s pre-order page.
Pre-orders opened today at 3AM EST (12AM PST). The only difference with ordering from Wirefly is that it won’t arrive with the Verizon version of Skype Mobile but it will sport the ability for simultaneous voice and data.
Hopefully this means Verizon will come out with their official statement and date petty soon, especially if it seems like the cat’s already out of the bag with this announcement.
