Remember those monolinths that AT&T received but were not to be opened? If you had guessed the BB Torch 9800 was inside, you are correct. RIM has been losing market share to Google and Apple recently and they’re banking on the Torch to stop the bleeding. Even though BB6 should bring back the crack, have too many of RIM’s followers already jumped ship and fallen in love with Android or iOS? There’s no question that RIM will still have some catching up to do in the touchscreen market, but do you think the Torch will be enough to at least help RIM hold down their current spot? Most international carriers run on GSM so I see why RIM is pushing the Torch before the Odin Refresh, but I’m sure plenty of CDMA Storm 2 users will make the jump to Android devices while the Torch 9800 sits pretty at GSM carriers. How many of you will be picking up the Torch on launch day?
