I’m out of the office today but here’s today’s daily Tech fix.
It’s official. While we knew that BlackBerry 10 would be launching on 30 January, the UK’s biggest networks and retailers have all announced that they’ll be stocking RIM’s latest BlackBerry handsets running BlackBerry 10. If you’re still waiting on a solid rival to iOS, Android and Windows Phone, your time might have just come.
Earlier this week RIM confirmed that the first BlackBerry 10 device will swap the keyboard for a touchscreen. Now the company has announced we won’t be seeing the new BlackBerry handsets until early 2013. The news comes amid growing troubles for the company. It sounds like BlackBerry fans will have to be very patient. But will 2013 be too late for the new handsets? More this way.
BlackBerry maker, RIM have decided to ditch the traditional keyboard in favour of the new touchscreen. Now, the smartphone has been suffering with popularity recently with the explosion of Apple iOS and Google Android however RIM wants to change that.
BlackBerry BBX is the new OS and will be running on brand new smartphones due to be launched next year. The new design change will very much resemble the company’s tablet, the PlayBook and could even come without a qwerty keyboard!
Brand new feature to The Daily Tech Review is the Friday Round-Up which is where I bring you the Tech news that I’ve missed out on throughout the week. However, obviously not all of it because that would just be impossible!

Today, I’m bringing you a BlackBerry overdose with the announcement of one new BlackBerry Bold and two new BlackBerry Torch models on the way, where do I start?
Share your music with your friends through BlackBerry Messenger.
Sharing is popular as social networking site, Facebook has proven. People like to know what their friends are up to every second of the day. We also like to share what music we’re listening to and this is what BlackBerry’s new paid for service will achieve.
In addition to the forthcoming release of BlackBerry App World 3.0 BBM Music will let users share their songs and playlists with friends and family, well anyone really! Furthermore, RIM will offer their own and unique music library. Songs can be downloaded to your BlackBerry through a dedicated app.
Finally, it will set you back £3 ($5) a month, not much at all! With this monthly fee you then be able to send and receive a maximum of 50 songs per month.
What’s my view?
Its sounds good I suppose, not really my thing. However, if you’re the sort of person who likes to keep your people in the know of what music you’re listening and when BBM Music will be for you.
