If you have patiently been waiting to make your way from your current carrier to head to Verizon, this might just be up your alley. Wirefly has a promo running right now for you to pick up a HTC Thunderbolt for a single Benjamin. Thats right, $100 smack-a-roos. The Thunderbolt was Verizons first venture into 4G LTE on Android and I have been told it is extremely fast. The device is packing a 1GHz Qualcomm processor, 4.3″ SLCD display with Gorilla glass (much like the Galaxy S line) and 768MB RAM. Let us not forget the 8MP camera w/ flash, front facing camera and HTC’s signature kickstand for your viewing pleasure.
The only downside, in my opinion, has to be the OS version. The device is still rocking Froyo 2.2. Which isn’t a huge deal yet, but since the 2.3 update was supposed to already hit the device it leaves me wondering if they will ever get to it. We also must not forget that this offer is only valid for NEW customers, not upgrades or add-a-lines. Which means in short, that you will suffer the consequences of having to choose one of the new tiered data plans.
No matter how you look at it, $100 bucks is still a great price for this device. Head on over to Wirefly right now if you are ready to pick one of these bad boys up.
