BlackBerry OS 6.0: What do we know about it?
Hello, habrazhiteli!
I have prepared for you a translation of an article telling about the upcoming version of the Blackberry OS, which will be demonstrated this week:
under the cut translation, promo video and screenshots of the interface
"In light of the fact that the manufacturer Blackberry, Research In Motion, and itching to stir interest in the upcoming 6th version of the operating system at the Symposium of Corporate Wireless Technologies (Wireless Enterprise Symposium (WES)) this week in Orlando, Florida , it’s a pity that the company, as usual, kept its mouth shut last week when we asked for confirmation of the authenticity of leaked photos and details about the OS itself.
')
As we predicted, RIM will show a demonstration of the next generation of its OS at the conference, which starts on Thursday. RIM almost did not confirm anything from rumors about the OS, except that its debut was promised in the next quarter .
We will also expect to be shown better integration with touch devices, trackpad support and QWERTY keyboard support, especially for devices that are already released, such as the Storm, Bold, and Tour. Unlike Microsoft, which does not plan to adapt the upcoming Windows Phone 7 Series OS for previous phones, RIM will make the OS update backward compatible. In other words, the update will be available for previously released models of smartphones.
We also know that the new generation of the now-unloved BlackBerry's embedded browser will be based on WebKit , the same open-source engine on which the iPhone and Android browsers are built. In fact, we have been expecting a migration to WebKit since RIM bought the developer of the Torch Mobile browser in August 2009.
Watch for the emergence of new information, which will certainly be as soon as RIM starts demonstrating OS 6.0 at this symposium and in the following months, and in the meantime, refresh your head with a list of new features and improvements that are waiting for us according to information from the leaked OS . ”
I hope someone will find this article interesting.
