I use both...haha.
Bionic is my main that I play around with and I keep Tbolt straight stock as an emergency backup phone.

Bionic Or Thunderbolt

- Start date
Are these not enough roms for you?
GINGERBREAD:
+ Eclipse 2.2 by Nitroglycerine (AOSP)
+ Kin3tix 1.0 by DroidTh3ory (Motoblur or AOSP, you decide)
+ Liberty by Kejar31
ICS:
+ AOSP by dhacker & hashcode
+ CM9 ported by DroidTh3ory, Dhacker29 and hashcode
+ AOKP ported by DroidTh3ory, Dhacker29 and hashcode
+ MIUI ported by InSaNeMoD
+ Axi0m by DroidTh30ry
+ GummyICS by Kejar31
The ics roms are still too buggy for most people and the only other rom you listed that isnt outdated and uses the latest official release as a base is eclipse. If you looked in the tbolt forums there are easily 20 times as many roms if your going to count the older ones, so I can see where hes coming from.
A huge +1 for you.
And i'm not trying to put the phone down is nice but crazy how huge the hype was for it and there is only one solid ROM that is up to date. I have a six month old baby and i'm always using my camera for everything so I need it working for video and all

If you get bored and feel like theming something just theme some of your favorite apps. In my opinion its easier than making a theme from scratch cause you already got all the png's to work with. I got sick of the green in dolphin browser mini so last night I changed everything to blue. Or you could make a theme for the stock rom if you can find a deodexed version.
I have both also and I like both. Lately I have been using the Tbolt more. The Tbolt has a better Camera hands down. The battery life on the Bionic is much better than my rooted Tbolt with Skyraider on it. I like the Tbolt for the little wider screen. Bionic is a smaller phone. With the Extended battery it's just as thick as the Tbolt with a standard battery.
Hard choice. I would own both...

I agree, owning both is quite nice. They both have their ups and downs. I'm not going to root my tbolt though because I can't having something happen to both of my phones and not have a phone until I fix one.
Not exactly a secret that you can do more with an HTC phone. Pretty much common knowledge.

I don't mind having both rooted and the only reason I have the Bionic rooted is I hate bloatware and wanted to remove all that. I like the Bionic stock rom.
Besides if you mess up one you can always goto ebay and buy a new phone.
Right now I am interested in the the Razr Maxx. Just doing more reading on it first.
I also like the Bionic stock rom. I've had my bionic for almost a year now and this week is the first I actually started using a ROM for it.
Why do people act surprised that the thunderbolt has more roms? Its an HTC. They always have the most roms. Its not exactly a secret that you get a larger choice of roms with HTC. That's not just comparing to the bionic, but to any non HTC or Nexus phone. If you want a large selection of roms, get an HTC or a nexus because nothing else compares.

The bionic has only been out for 6 months. It came out in September.

Yeah this one's a no brainer. Get the bionic.
Regarding the above cons:
• Hexec workaround was recently posted allowing for custom kernels. This was really the last issue caused by the locked bootloader. In less than a month it will be old news
• There are CM9, AOKP, AOSP, and MIUI variants of ICS available now and improving daily. Who needs stock ICS?
My buddy has a tbolt and there's no comparison in the speed, responsiveness and battery life.
