As expected, the BlackBerry Torch 9800 is now available in white on Rogers. That’ll pair up nicely with the white Bold 9780 that Rogers will be launching in good time. Bell will have a red 9800 if you’re not digging the white. There are no white Torches in Canada available outside of Rogers by the looks of it, but if you’re in the U.S., AT&T launched theirs a few weeks ago.
The BlackBerry Torch 9800 has a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera with flash, 624 MHz processor, and 512 MB of RAM. It runs RIM’s new operating system that includes universal search from the home screen, a WebKit browser, and a bunch of UI enhancements.
A shallow grab at attention with a simple repaint? Maybe, but some people really dig the white smartphones. Check out our review of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 if you’re at all curious about the device’s performance, or head on over to Rogers’ online store to pick one up. They jacked up the price from $199 to $229 on contract for some reason.
