BBLeaks has obtained some pictures that it says comes from one of its most trusted tipsters. The subject matter appears to be the upcoming BlackBerry OS 6.0. Right away you can see that RIM is taking very seriously the idea that BlackBerry handsets can be used for pleasure besides business. The picture of the OS strongly suggests the HTC style that appears on the Taiwanese based manufacturer's phones. It certainly is more graphic and lively than the current BlackBerry OS 5.0. And take a look at the widgets. This is a major step up for RIM. The resolution of the screen in the picture is similar to that seen on the BlackBerry Storm and Storm2. Or perhaps the picture was taken from the new BlackBerry 9900/9930 Slider that is expected to launch in the not too distant future on Sprint. No matter which device it was photographed on, BlackBerry fans should be feeling good. It really, really looks like RIM finally gets it.
