Since the release of the HTC Thunderbolt in the U.S. it has become fairly quiet out of the corner, with no further comments from HTC on further details of when the smartphone will be released in other places around the world. Now however HTC have come out and announced that the Thunderbolt will be recieving an update to Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). Those who do not live in the U.S. will have to continue to wait and see if the HTC Thunderbolt even makes it to markets outside the U.S. Perhaps even with Gingerbread installed on the launch version, we’ll just have to wait and see.
