HTC Thunderbolt with LTE for Verizon pictured ahead of CES unveiling?

So, that lovely 4.3-inch LTE smartphone with Android for Verizon we’ve been calling the Mecha and the Droid Incredible HD? Looks like it might come to market as the Thunderbolt, so says Droid Life — and we tend to put some weight on the rumor considering that they’ve just run twelve leaked shots of the thing. As you can see, this is clearly Verizon’s head-on answer to the EVO 4G, featuring similar stylings and, in all likelihood, an LTE modem swapped in for the EVO’s WiMAX one. Sure looks like that “controlled” leak from a few days back, doesn’t it? More on this at Verizon’s press conference next week, we presume.

HTC Incredible HD teased for January 6th reveal?

Posted in: 4G, HTC, lte, teaser, thunderbolt, Today's Chili, verizon, Yahoo

See that? No, not all the ambiguous 4G talk, we mean the veiled phone. If we had to guess we’d say that we’re looking at a January 6th reveal of the HTC Incredible HD / Mecha — a device rumored to be headed to Verizon’s new LTE network. Unfortunately, we don’t know who 2mymob.com is (the domain carrying the tease) or how it’s affiliated with HTC. So don’t go entering your mobile phone number into the field where you can sign up for notifications. The site seems to be linked with Yahoo! marketing and by entering your number you’re consenting to receive “further complimentary marketing text messages by SMS to your mobile phone,” according to the terms and conditions. Don’t do it. We’ll let you know the very minute the Incredible HD is launched, which, by the looks of things will happen at CES in Las Vegas.

Update: The site is indeed official — it’s the “Mobile Version” linked directly from the HTC.com website.

MB&F HM4 Thunderbolt considers legible time ‘a fringe benefit’ (video)

Posted in: expensive, luxury, thunderbolt, Today's Chili, video, watch

This isn’t just a watch, it’s a horological machine. The HM4 Thunderbolt, recently unveiled by designer Maximilian Busser, represents an intriguing mixture of high-grade materials, precision engineering, and outlandishly macho design. The case is composed of titanium and sapphire — which collectively take over 200 hours of machining and finishing to achieve the desired aerodynamic look — while ensconced within it are over 300 parts composing a “transcendental” engine. We can’t say we’re not attracted by the bullet-shaped dials offering us our time with a side order of superfly, but then the $158,000 price tag ensures that we won’t be able to do something foolish like buying one for ourselves. See the HM4 on video after the break.
