What devices (non-phone) beat the specs of the HTC Thunderbolt?

I want to know what devices (without phone capabilities) are better, but in the same price range. I guess I am looking for ones less than $600, since an HTC Thunderbolt is $250 with a 2-year contract.

an iPad is bigger, but does it beat the specs?

HTC Thunderbolt:

You got 2 cameras front facing and on the back. 8mp camera.
Voice and data are simultaneous.
8gb with 32 gb card.
768mb ram.

I'm confused by your question. Are you looking for a comparison among tablets? If so, why are you asking for non-phone device comparisons with the HTC Thunderbolt, which is a phone?

And where did you come up with $250? I haven't seen that yet. Do you have a link I can look at?

How have you not seen that price? It's the Minimum Advertised Price. The MAP.

Well I am beginning to think that the HTC Thunderbolt is BS. I can just get a regular phone and a tablet that beats the HTC Thunderbolt's specs.

For you maybe. This seems like a sour grapes situation. You are not eligible to upgrade to the Thunderbolt so now you are trying to talk it down.

No. I am definitely getting the upgrade to the HTC Thunderbolt, no matter what. If not that then the Droid Bionic. Despite the fact that I think it is BS (in regards to how it's like an iPod touch but with calling capabilities), because it is a great phone. I'm obsessed with it. I want to check out the front and back cameras and the awesome kick stand.

VZN shows this as Coming Soon.
HTC does not show a price, and also shows not in stock.

Not only was this a dead link, the site itself is not even owned or operated by HTC.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos »

In Greek mythical cosmogony, particularly in the Theogony (Origin of the Gods) of Hesiod (8th–7th century BC), Chaos is the original dark void from which everything else appeared. First came Gaia (Earth) and Eros (Love), then Erebus and his sister Nyx (Night). These siblings produced children together which included Aether, Hemera (Day), and Nemesis.[4] Other cosmogonies, such as the lost Heptamychos of Pherecydes of Syros, also have the gods being born from Chaos, but in a different way

The image they're showing is material pertaining to indirect retailers. Who knows what Verizon Wireless will price this phone at. It could be the same, it could be different. Until you've got an announced price (as in, coming from Verizon itself), this is only a guess.
