This allows the user one application on the Blackberry Torch 9800 to search for any folder or file or any document present in the phone or over the internet. It is the first Torch version that has incorporated the large touch screen design of the Storm and the slide out physical full QWERTY keyboard of Bold in to its new design.
Torch 9800 has 3.2″ capacitive HVGA display with a resolution of 480 x 360pixels and more memory, 8GB internal memory, expandable with microSD card up to 32GB, 512MB RAM and a decent 5.0 MP camera.
