RIM Announced BlackBerry Torch 9800 w/WebKit Browser: Available August 12 (What?)

Did you hear that RIM announced the new Torch 9800? My guess is probably not. New BlackBerry releases don’t get the kind of attention they once did when the media spoke about its addictive quality and nicknamed it
“CrackBerry”. Combine the falling mindshare with its release being in between the release of the Motorola Xoom and the iPad 2 and the release is practically a non-event except to BlackBerry fans.
