RIM Shows Off BlackBerry 6 in Video

Jul 12, 2010, 9:57 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Research In Motion today posted a new video demonstration of BlackBerry 6 in action. BlackBerry 6 is the company's brand new operating system, which is set to debut later this year. In the video, RIM provides a better idea of how some features work. It shows off the new WebKit-based browser with visual bookmarks; the social feed software that allows for posting to multiple social networks; the new threaded SMS application; the revised music player; and the revised, touch-optimized user interface. RIM still hasn't said exactly when the new OS will be available in new handsets.

Yawn.....

RIM, its time to license your BBM and email system... otherwise you will keep falling behind and will never be able to catch up. Stop making phones and become a software company instead!!!
