The big question is, did the Torch 9810 live up to its hype, did RIM deliver with the new BlackBerry 7 OS and hardware accelerated graphics? Follow me after the break and find out.

It was only a few short months ago that RIM let us know that they had acquired a social media contact list company called Gist, and today we start to see the fruit of their labor as Gist and RIM launch the Gist app for the BlackBerry Torch.

Gist for BlackBerry will give you some awesome features like;

• Get news, status updates, and contact details for everyone in your network.
• See a unified contact list across email, social networks, and other sources.
• Use Search to navigate the contact list quickly, or sort the list by Name or Importance. Importance is a score based on your interactions with people in your network.
• Easily share a social update or news item via email.
• Add contacts from Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and your email accounts to your BlackBerry smartphone by using the Gist web application together with Gist for BlackBerry.

If you haven’t tried out Gist I highly suggest you give it ago, all this info in your inbox is defiantly a good thing.
