Overclocked HTC Thunderbolt Dominates Quadrant Benchmark

A huge overclock, a huge score, some doubt as to its authenticity, and a phone with incredible potential. Why haven’t we seen this before on other Snapdragon-powered handsets? Some images of the Quadrant scores and overclock after the break.
