BlackBerry Torch Officially Launched in India

Earlier our forum scooped up some news that the BlackBerry Torch 9800 was set to launch in India soon. shahriyar, has given us the heads up that the 9800 has already launched in India earlier today.

The presenters of this unveiling were RIM Managing Director Frenny Bawa & Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone. This grand event took place at the Hotel Grand Hyatt, Mumbai. If you’re unfamiliar with Deepika, hit the More button to check her out, smokin!

Here are some quotes from the unveiling from both Frenny Bawa & the luscious Deepika Padukone.

“With its new High-Performance browser, powerful touchscreen interface and easy to use BlackBerry keyboard, the highly anticipated BlackBerry Torch is an exceptional mobile experience for both consumers and business users in India” – Frenny Bawa.

”Me and my family have been using this brand for last two years and it is real pleasure to launch this phone, i love its functions”, –Deepika Padukone

Despite all of the critics and confusion with the BlackBerry ban in India, this seems to mitigate a lot of that talk. Positive step here for RIM and the people of India. I don’t know what I would do without my BlackBerry, so I can just imagine what the citizens of India would do if service were to get cut off.
