Research in Motion is a Canadian technology and communications company that has always been innovative in the design of communications devices, the most famous of which is the Blackberry line of mobile phones. Here we will take a brief look at the history of the Blackberry and see how this has led to the latest Blackberry Smartphone, the Blackberry Torch.

The original Blackberry device was the 850 which was launched in 1999. This was in fact a two-way pager. Their first Smartphone was introduced in 2002, and was simply known as the BlackBerry, phones4u became the 1st retailler to stock this outside of blackberrys official online stores. This was targeted on the business world and quickly became a must have for every smart young business executive. It was very much a device for keeping in touch with the office when on the move and had a very advanced push email system.

BlackBerry phones are able to be integrated with the e-mail system of the user’s company. This is achieved via the BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES). And this can be run on the company’s network allowing all employees on the move to keep in touch with their colleagues through just as if they were sitting at their desks. For smaller companies not owning their own servers, similar services are available through external providers and through the RIM Network Operations Centre.

For individuals (rather than companies) there is the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) which also provides email integration allowing users to access many email accounts simultaneously and operates throughout much of the world.

It is not difficult to see why Blackberry phones became so popular with business users; however other competing technologies such as the iPhone began to appear on the scene. Although these could not quite match the email capabilities of Blackberry they were getting close and were attracting corporate users. In response Blackberry took the decision to focus on the individual user rather than just the corporate, and as a consequence launched a new range of phones that combined the technologies for which Blackberry is famous will many of the newer smartphone technologies.

An example of this latest generation of Blackberry phones is the Blackberry Torch. This has a physical slide-out keyboard along with a 3.2 inch touch-screen display with many advanced features and soon became one of the market leaders.

Converse with the caller to the pen requires a good dose of courage, unless you master the handwriting recognition. Finally the processor is sometimes sentences when many applications are open but the overall Touch is swift enough.

The HTC Touch screen occupies most of the front. It has good anti-reflective but the pixels are visible on the picture test. The touchpad responds well to the slightest touch of a finger or stylus.
