So what's happened is the entire net has known about it for months and Vodafone have given it a codename so their employee's don't?

   Blackberry gave it a codename, not us   
 
And most of the net news has been about Verizon... which the more informed of you will know is owned 45% by Vodafone 
 
Had a betetr look ina  meeting yestersay, it is amazing... much nicer than an iPhone as a phone IMO...

You all said it yoursleves that the meida know about every phone, but no-one made the conenction 
 
Also most of the info on the net until the 23rd was heavily incorrect, pocket-lint broke it first with soem proper pics/features etc, most of the stuff written about the thunder was incorrect

I'm thinking of something that begins with 'a' find me a link to it from the internetz   
 
That is more information than everyone else had to go on for the phone

Verizon own 55% of Verizon, so i'd say it's more Verizon than vodafone.

Yes, but then you'll probably be able to get it on SFR as well, which again is Vodafone in France... Its still a Vodafone exclusive, we got the deal and are letting Verizon sell it in the US on our behalf as our partner there
