No Skype For You, Thunderbolt!

Yup, supposedly the HTC Thunderbolt will not be receiving Skype. Now that's what I call an LTE phone. Nice isn't it? Not. Luckily, in the future it will be receiving some kind of video chat. Yay! Everyone's happy.

Subject: *INFO* ThunderBolt by HTC – Training Documents
To:
The ThunderBolt by HTC trainings have been updated and replaced in InfoCenter.
The Skype Mobile with Video references have been removed.
Geek.com suggest that Skype could not put QIK into their software.


 The Thunderbolt isn't a full fledged 4g LTE device. Huh? You heard me, it uses  the 4g network for data. Phone calls will still be on the original CDMA network. Bummer. Looks like in the phone world 2 strikes and your screwed.
So now that means that the LG Revolution has the honor of being the first 4g Device. Wohoo!
After all this happened are you still going to buy this phone? Comment below.
