Except that it's vaporware so far -- that pic isn't anything official, it's just something someone came up with using photoshop...

very tru with the photoshop...but boy genius has been pretty good with their info...

bgr has leaked info in the past with only a photoshopped device, like the cdma curve and the bold rumors were first uncovered by the, late last year....hopefully this one will become reality as well....

Not unless it cost $199. Apple is killing it with their new prices.

Nokia has so-called iphone killer coming called the "tube".

Looks interesting -- I'm still going to go with the Bold when it comes out later this year (supposed to be maybe August).

I figure that by the time I'm ready to upgrade my Bold, the 2nd or 3rd generation of Thunder will be out (and on my carrier, AT&T...)
