BlackBerry Torch : Releasing Dates

BlackBerry Torch : Releasing Dates
The BlackBerry Torch may not just be AT&T's newest BlackBerry, created to replace a line of aging Curves and Bolds.The slider combination makes the Torch a hefty device, weighing just eight grams less than Motorola's Droid and much heavier than the iPhone 4.
Torch will be RIM’s first smartphone to run its much-hyped BlackBerry 6 operating system, that promises iPhone-like features including a more graphical user-interface, a better web experience (now with tabbed browsing), universal search and an aggregation of social network profiles in one spot for easy updates.The first BlackBerry to feature both a touchscreen and sliding keyboard, the Torch includes a 5-megapixel autofocus camera with flash, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, and a UMTS 3G wireless radio.

The device will be available in the US from 12 August but a UK release date is yet to be confirmed.
