BlackBerry Torch 9800 announced by RIM

Love touch screens....just NOT the S2! If this is going to be the same, I'm going to nail this to the wall!

The specs I've seen say it's a regular touch screen, no storm weirdness...
 
But will this phone be released here? Looks like its for AT&T and for them only? Also, if you look at the specs on gsmarena...it supports the American bands. Time will tell I guess. I am not mad about slide phones....not in Blackberry, Nokia or any other brand. Candybar is always the best for me.

Actually been interested in this for months and checked all the rumours etc. Not one looked like this ;)

They were all candybar which I was hoping for.

Congrats to BB for keeping this under wraps though
 
Why does it have to be so ugly... :(

beg to differ ... besides the functionality dwarfs appearance ;)

big question is when could we expect to see it here in SA?

edit: was looking to get the 9700 but I might wait for this
 
I think the big thing is the OS upgrades to current phones like bold 9700 etc. Storm & Storm2 owners are out of luck tho
