White is the new Black...Berry, that is

With most handset makers offering a white version of their most demanded handsets, a leaked slide was obtained by BGR. If you don't think that manufacturers understand the attraction buyers have for white colored models, you had better think again. Just read what the Canadian based manufacturer says. "Focus to bring the popular and trendy Pure White addition to the base colour across the Bold, Curve and Torch franchise."

Of course, some might wonder how trendy any of these models could be considering RIM's falling marketshare around the globe. The BlackBerry Torch 9810, BlackBerry Bold 9900 and BlackBerry Curve 9360 have all been launched in white (and we must say that the white Bold 9900 is a beauty). Coming in the next quarter will be the pale versions of the BlackBerry Bold 9790 and the BlackBerry Curve 9380. Conspicuous by its absence from the slide is the BlackBerry Torch 9850/9860 although BlackBerry OS ran a photo of such a device a few days ago (seen below); the authenticity of the pix could not be verified.
