More and more consumer-electronics makers are currently incorporating DLNA features into their products, and in the coming months and years, DLNA support could become very valuable to users who store lots or media on their smartphones.
Verizon's version of the HTC Thunderbolt has a new "instant boot" feature that enables the device to start up faster than its rivals, nearly instantly, according to HTC. I've yet to see this feature in person, so I can't truly attest to HTC's claim. However, as a long-time BlackBerry user, I can say with certainty that having to wait multiple minutes for a smartphone to boot or restart, as is the case with many Research In Motion RIM smartphones, gets old very quickly. Considering the device is brand new and it's Verizon's first LTE device, that price is reasonable.
The Thunderbolt also has 8GB of built-in storage. That's a steal. Folks looking for a powerful Android smartphone with a clear multimedia focus are sure to find a friend in the HTC Thunderbolt. Its fast, 1GHz processor means it should be able to handle streaming video and media playback without issue. The device's nearly 40GB of storageGB internal, 32GB card--should provide ample room for vast music, video and image libraries.
It packs an 8MP digital shooter for capturing images and p HD video, along with a "surround sound" speaker set up for better-than-average mobile-device audio quality. And the Thunderbolt also has its own fold-away kickstand, to help balance it for easy media viewing. Follow Al on Twitter ASacco. Follow everything from CIO. Email Al at asacco cio. Former CIO.
