Tech Fix - New Blackberrys Roll Out & Reviewed!

Blackberry Torch 9860

Blackberry Torch 9810

As a former Blackberry Curve 8330 user, and addict. I must admit I'm ad so tempted now to own a the new Blackberry Torch 9860! This device is what the Storm 1 and 2 should've been when the touchscreen device was introduced four or five years ago. From the video and review by Crackberry.com and Cnet.com this device (though small in screen size) is a Crackberry's users dream come true.

The device (Torch 9860) will be available on AT&T and Sprint network so far. So, hmmm, if the iPhone 5 and Torch 9860 come to Sprint at the same time which one will I choose??? Yikes!!! I am a fan of Blackberry's UI (user interface) and seamless email and notifications intergration. But if iPhone 5 proves to be all that I want it to be(bigger screen, better battery life, easy on the price, and improved customizing options) I may just get the iPhone on Sprint. If not, Blackberry's Torch 9860 has my money, in advance!

For the on the go person, business, and multitasking aficionado... The Blackberry Tourch 9860 has a fantastic form factor. Though slim, and smallish screen, the curve on its back makes it easy for it to rest on your hands. The UI is something that both Android and Apple really lacks. And RIM (Research In Motion) is tooting that BB OS 7's web browser is the fastest there has ever been in their line of phones. As always, my motto when buying anything advertised on the web... go to the stores and try it out first! Get your own review after the review...

**Update: Nicole Lee from Cnet.com informed us an hour ago that a possible release date and price has been spotted for the "Sprint" version of the Torch 9860(50). Price will be $149.00 after a rebate and renewal of 2 year contract. Release date possibly for August 21, 2011. More at Cnet.com
