Simple Mobile Review Podcast #33 — Another RIM Job

As many of you who listen to the SMRpodcast already know, I broke down and bought a BlackBerry Torch this passed weekend. I hate to reiterate the sentiment of most every other objective BlackBerry Torch review out there that you will find, but, at the end of the day, the device is what it is… The BlackBerry Torch seems like a proof of concept of BlackBerry 6 running on 2-year old hardware… I actually really like BlackBerry 6 , Research in Motions long over due major overhaul significantly enhanced update to the BlackBerry operating system.  (A detailed review of BlackBerry 6 is coming) The hardware on which RIM decided to debut it on, however, is kind of baffling. My take on on the BlackBerry Torch 9800 from a hardware standpoint ranges from “underwhelming” to “its alright i guess”.  It is as though RIM took spare parts from the BlackBerry Storm and the BlackBerry Bold 9800, slapped them together, and put a really decent OS on it.  Don’t get me wrong, if you are on AT&T and looking to upgrade, or, get your first BlackBerry, the BlackBerry Torch is the device to get.  I just don’t see, however, how this device will attract consumers that don’t already want a BlackBerry when compared to Android and the iPhone.

As many regular RIMarkable readers know, I participate in a weekly podcast about wireless technology news and gadgets called the Simple Mobile Review Podcast .  It’s a fairly new show that we (myself and the guys over at Simple Mobile Review ) started recording around the beginning of the year and we’ve just completed our 29th episode , of which every single last one of them has been absolute blast to record. The SMRpodcast isn’t specifically about devices coming out of Research in Motion, however, BlackBerry news is a big part of what we talk about and is a major segment of the show each week.  You can listen to the show directly from the web, or, you can subscribe to it and have it automatically downloaded to iTunes , your Zune , or subscribe to our RSS feed to listen in your podcast player of choice.  We even have a free SMRpodcast application for BlackBerry users that you can install to your device and have the show automatically downloaded every week. When you get a chance, listen to the show.  Follow our new Twitter account, @SMRPodcast , and leave us comments telling us what you like about the show, what you dislike about the show, and if there is anything that you’d like us to cover in an upcoming episode
