Torch Mobile was acquired by Research in Motion (RIM) to help them improve the overall quality of their smart phone line but specifically the web browser. With a focus on becoming a product that is better all around the Blackberry Torch Mobile acquisition helps fill that need. Many people remain faithful to Blackberry and the new, improved model line could lead to a larger group to purchase them.

A strong point of the Blackberry line is the email integration. It is one of the factors that draw many of the users to Blackberry. Because of the strong email interface many corporate users use Blackberry phones.

Another strong point of Blackberry is their physical keyboards. They have done an excellent job on manufacturing keyboards that are responsive and well spaced out. This keyboard allows users to easily type emails, text messages, or any other required information. Most of the Blackberry keyboards are QWERTY style but there are some that have the RIM SureType system keyboard, which has two letters per each button.

Without a doubt the web browser is the biggest area of opportunity on a Blackberry smart phone. Many other brands offer a much better system to surf the internet on their mobile devices. The market has many different smart phones that have quick and easy to use browsers that are displayed on large high resolution screens. These type of phones offer a much better web surfing opportunity than what Blackberry had previously offered.

When Torch Mobile was acquired by Blackberry that allowed their technologies to be combined and for them to install a new web browser on various Blackberry phones. The new Blackberry Torch is the first one to be released with this browser and it is much improved over the past lines. This Web Kit browser is capable of working with web pages that have Java script and pull up web pages in a tabbed setting.

The smart phone market is filled with very good choices at this time. Apple has the iPhone4 which built on an already successful phone base. There phone is small, has a good amount of internal memory, and has a top web browser on it. There are many good Android smart phones available for consumers as well. Many different manufacturers and models are being sold at very high rates. There is a heavy mix of Android phones, some with physical keyboards and some without, but they all do a solid job on web browsing.

With the Blackberry Torch Mobile acquisition the resulting Web Kit browser offers consumers the thing that Blackberry had lacked the most on their phones. The competition is very steep for Blackberry with the new iPhone and the various Android handsets that are available but the Blackberry Torch is definitely helping out improve their product line for the normal consumer.
