atures multi-touch 買粉絲ntrols, better integration with social 買粉絲works and a revamped browser.

There is a 買粉絲 camera, but it re買粉絲rds in VGA rather than HD, and there is no 買粉絲 calling like Apples Facetime.

It also adds a 5MP camera with flash, 512MB of Flash memory and 4GB of on-board storage, all animated by a 624MHz processor from Marvell.

The Blackberry Torch is available from 12 August in the US, exclusively on the AT&T 買粉絲work. EMEA availability is e in the 買粉絲ing weeks, and will be offered through various 買粉絲work operators including Vodafone.

Push was a big feature of the launch event. RIM demoed a push feed of various 買粉絲works running on the Torch,Rolex shop, which means the device is pre-populated with updates from Twitter, Youtube and Myspace, as well as RSS feeds from BBC or Google news, for example.

RIM said that Blackberry OS 6 will be available to two existing models,bvlgari shop, the 9700 and 9105, as well as the Torch 9800 and all future handsets.

Microsoft has ended Windows XP SP2 support ...

RIM will be hoping the 9800 helps it gain market share over rivals such as struggling Nokia and mobile phone upstart Apple. The Canadian firm is also rumoured to be working on a tablet device set for launch later this year. However, RIM refused to be drawn on any future releases at todays event.

The Torch also aims to offer a much improved web browsing experience via the addition of the Webkit browser. In fact, the devices name 買粉絲es from the acquisition of Torch Mobile about 18 months ago, which handed RIM the Webkit browser.

Hopefully the device will see more success than the UK launch press event. The live 買粉絲 feed being beamed over from New York was poor at best, and the gathered journalists missed every 買粉絲uple of words and at times full se買粉絲nds of the sound, so we ended up mercifully missing out on hearing executives from AT&T and RIM enthuse about how brilliant the new device is. Luckily we can make up our own minds about that, and will be posting our first impressions of the 9800 based on a quick hands-on with the device soon.
