Wait -- Apple has a Thunderbolt, too?
Now this is getting downright confusing. We're expecting the Verizon ThundertBolt Android smartphone to launch any day now, and here comes Apple with Thunderbolt, too? Say what?
Word on the street is that "Thunderbolt" is what Apple's calling the new LightPeak -- as in fast, fast, FAST 10Gbps -- port on an upcoming MacBook Pro refresh. It's a port on a laptop -- not a smartphone.
But if Apple starts throwing around the world "Thunderbolt" on Thursday -- the same day we might finally see the Verizon smartphone be released -- well, it's bound to be repeated by just about anyone who's at Steve Jobs' beck and call. So things could get a little interesting. [Fscklog via MacRumors, TiPb]
