Launching in the US tomorrow, RIM's new BlackBerry Torch 9800 will be lighting up the lives of smartphone fans in the UK any day now. Reg Hardware had a sneak preview of RIM's flagship that features the first outing of the BlackBerry 6 OS.

Other firsts for the company are that it's a sliderphone, so the Torch will appeal to newcomers to the platform – more inclined to use its capacitive touchscreen interface – and also to the Crackberry faithful who can access its physical Qwerty keyboard, that appears when you slide the handset open.
