Research in Motion's latest offering to the world of smartphones is the BlackBerry Torch. Its the first BlackBerry phone to have a capacitive touch screen and a full QWERTY keyboard in a clamshell slider form factor. With a lot of hopes, BlackBerry is launching the device all over the world. Now, the company is getting geared up to launch the BlackBerry Torch in the Canadian part of the world.
The new is that the company will have launch parties on the company's home turf. Sources say that the BlackBerry Torch launch party in Canada has been scheduled on 21st of Sep. On 21st, the launch party will be in Toronto. This will be followed by another launch party for the device in Vancouver the next day, and then the next day yet another launch party in Montreal. So its a three day launch party, from 21st of Sep to 23rd of Sep.
But there is no info about the fact that these dates will also be the official release dates for the device also. This is yet to be known. It is also said that BlackBerry will be giving away 25 units of the BlackBerry Torch free at each launch party. So there you go, another attraction. RIM is spending a lot of money and time on this device. Dont know if the device will live up to all the hype.

Research in Motion, or RIM, the maker of BlackBerry phones, has agreed to provide the encrypted data to Indian security agencies already, but has said that the data can be provided in a deferred manner. This means that the Govt has to give the Canadian company the details such as the phone number and the date and day of the required data. The company will then crack the server open at Canada and give the required data to the security agency. But this would require a time of 10 days.
The Indian Govt says that this is unacceptable. The terrorist may plan and execute a terrorist attack in a span of 10 days. The Indian Govt has asked RIM to give them the real time data and to all the phones, not just the particular phones that the Govt should specify. RIM agreed to give the permission to the Govt when it had threatened to ban the services like voice, SMS and internet. Now, from Sep 1st, the Govt has said that it will put a ban on BlackBerry Enterprise Services, or BES and BlackBerry Messenger Services, or BMS, will be banned if RIM does not agree to its conditions. RIM now has only 6 days left to give its decisions.
A lot of negotiations have been happening daily between RIM and Indian security officials. It is yet to see if anything positive will come out of this.

But if you happen to have a BlackBerry Bold 9780 somewhere close to you and want to have a prior experience of the BlackBerry OS 6, here is your chance. The file is available for download and you download it and install on your BlackBerry Bold right away. Download the update from here. But you will be responsible for your decisions.
A website has listed the BlackBerry Torch for sale in the UK with a bankrupting price tag of £570. Expansys is the company which is taking orders for the very latest phone from RIM, the BlackBerry Torch. Expensive than the 16GB version of the iPhone 4, which is available for £500, and a lot closer to the 32GB version of the iPhone 4, which is available for £600, does the Torch really sell for this high a price?
Expansys has to make the BlackBerry Torch to come down to Earth a little more if it wants to play the game safe.Or it may lose a chance. With the HTC ruling the Android world, its similar offering, the HTC Desire, sells at £350 and less if you do a bit a shop juggling.
The BlackBerry Torch is the first device from RIM that sports a capacitive touch screen and a slide out QWERTY keypad. The sure press technology of the BlackBerry Storm series dint catch up quiet well, to be frank. The BlackBerry Torch will also feature the new BlackBerry OS 6, which is much hyped and waited for. The phone has multi touch interface, making it a very current technology phone. Its support for social networking websites also gives it quiet a push. But the question is, can BlackBerry Torch really sell itself out for £570 with so much competition in the close vicinity of the phone?
