HTC Thunderbolt: Free at Verizon Until Jan. 26 - And so rests the champion: Verizon has officially put the HTC Thunderbolt on sale for the low-low price of $0.00, a fitting final tribute for the carrier's first-ever 4G LTE smartphone.
That's not to say that the company is retiring the smartphone as-is. Rather, it's simply extending its usual two-year contract discounts to completely cover the already discounted cost of the Thunderbolt.
That's the same Thunderbolt, we note, that was once heralded as "the iPhone killer." And in many ways did – according to a March 2011 report by BTIG analyst Walter Piecyk, sales of the Thunderbolt equaled those of the iPhone in 61 percent of the 150 Verizon Wireless stores surveyed by BTIG at the time. It outsold the iPhone in 28 percent of the surveyed stores.
