Those of you who have never tried a BlackBerry 6 device might be wondering how fast RIM could really make the WebKit browser. Those of you who already have a BlackBerry Torch 9800 might be wondering what magic RIM pulled off with the new WebKit browser. If RIM gave the rest of the BlackBerry OS the same performance overhaul as the browser then they would have a SMASHING hit on their hands. Now also notice how much slower your OS 5.0 browser is compared to the competition that was using WebKit for years now…
I noticed this last slide in Jason Mace’s write up on the AT&T/RIM BlackBerry 6 Developer Webcast and had to mention it by itself. Just look how RIM made the BlackBerry 6 WebKit browser exponentially better than OS 5.0. Thank you Torch Mobile for making this happen! Now I understand why RIM named the device for you.
