Do not let tech support replace your Thunderbolt.
We all know the issues we are having from data connections, sms, mms, rebooting, ect. I'm on my 3rd replacement device and I wish I kept my original one.

Thunderbolt Complaint
Not sure where to post this so Verizon will get it, but hopefully they will read it. I upgraded from an original Droid. Wish I hadn't. This thing has so many bugs it's scary.
