Honestly, I don't think I'd go with another Thunderbolt again, after dealing with this one. Even rooted, running a gingerbread Sense rom, there's too many bugs a quirks with it that cause issues.
I'm leaning towards the Bionic when I upgrade, but I'm a little leery. I've decided though that after reviewing all the new phones, and hearing about all of them, that anymore, it's really a crapshoot when it comes down to the new smartphones. They're all developed poorly, not tested thouroughly, and waaaay to much bloatware. The battery life on all of them may as well be the same, since as much usage as these get, the batteries don't last, which is pretty much standard.
If you're not willing/capable to spend the time to get into the programming of the phone to try and adjust the settings of them to work for you, they're almost not even worth buying anymore. In stock form, most of them are pretty basic, despite what they advertise them as being capable. In stock form, who truly needs a dual core processor, on the bionic or Razr? Yeah, its a little faster, but you're not going to be using that dual core to it's full potential, if you're just leaving the phone stock.
