The BlackBerry Torch goes on sale in the Untied States later this week, but its still unknown when exactly it’ll launch in Canada. Previously Canada’s big three (Bell, Telus and Rogers) had announced it would be coming later this year. However the team over at TheBerryFix got word that Canada’s very own Telus Mobility might be gearing up for a mid-September launch. The rumor points to September 16th as the possible Canadian launch date for the Torch 9800. Sadly nothing is confirmed as of yet, including pricing.

And, truth be told, when compared to their previous endeavors, it looks like the sixth version is the charm. This time around, it’s BlackBerry OS 6’s Desktop Manager software for your computer.

While there’s still no ( official ) word on when we’ll get any BlackBerry OS 6 hardware, much less that 9800 Bold , RIM has seen fit to provide us another glimpse at the software front. This time round we’re looking at multimedia features, including the photo gallery, a brand-new podcasts app and YouTube, alongside extra camera controls (including a face detection mode) and roundabout confirmation that at least some new BlackBerries will support pinch-to-zoom . Oddly enough, there’s no video showing off the new multimedia functionality, just a set of stills, but we suppose RIM realizes it’s all been done before and Crackberry addicts will take whatever they can get right now.

With more and more states cracking down on cell phone use while driving, it’s becoming tougher to get away with emailing when you’re on the road. Not that you should anyway. Distracted driving puts others at harm, nevermind yourself and anyone in the car with you.

After last week’s “they do it too” from Apple regarding the iPhone 4’s signal problems; Nokia and Research In Motion have responded to Apple’s claim. The Antennagate seems to continue forever. Had Apple resisted the urge to hit back, with childish justifications for what is clearly a hardware design flaw and replaced the faulty units; this would have been water under the bridge by now. Instead, now Nokia and Research In Motion (makers of BlackBerry smartphones) are hitting back hard defending themselves for an unjustified attack from Apple. First was Nokia’s rebuttal, then RIM’s but both have pretty good points to make.
