In you comparison of the iphone 4 and the Torch I was amazed at the fact that you did not mention how the two compare as a communication device, I know, crazy me, putting things like reception, phone, email, texting etc up front as being more important than playing pinball or apps that help identify the Red Necked Warbler, and I am a Mac guy that has two Apple computers, a 160 gig ipod classic, and most importantly I have an iphone and a Torch, The iphone is a fun and powerful toy, and a decent phone, but I may as well have an ipod touch as far as a communication device goes it is like sending smoke signals compared to BlackBerry and I LOVE MY Macs, don't get me wrong, the Blackberry eats everything out there as a communication device, so be fair guys if you are going to say where RIM falls short, say were the others guys do as well. ALSO... RIM JUST ACQUIRED TAT, THE ASTONISHING TRIBE, The Swat team of U.I. design companies, so lets see what a Torch 2 with a 1.5 gig processor and The PlayBooks operating system will look like in maybe several months http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheBoyGeniusReport/~3/EdXBslagfN4/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email , check out tat.se
