HTC Thunderbolt 4G Reportedly Selling Better than iPhone 4
Wednesday, April 6, 2011 10:05 No CommentsThe newly-launched HTC Thunderbolt 4G is reportedly selling better than the iPhone 4 on Verizon Wireless, according to BTIG Research analyst Walter Piecyk — who called 150 different Verizon Wireless stores across 22 major cities nationwide to ask which of the two aforementioned smartphones was selling better.
