RIM Offers New Blackberry Internet Browser (with Video)

All of your favorite smartphone makers are getting in on the Mobile World Congress festivities, and RIM isn’t an exception. Long known for offering inferior browsers that can’t quite compete with other top phones on the market, the minds behind the Blackberry introduced a new WebKit-based browser today in Barcelona. To keep pace with its competitors, RIM solicited help from browser design firm Torch Mobile. Their joint effort has created a browser that provides faster page loading and should prove to be a better overall Web experience for Blackberry users. Scrolling and zooming are reportedly smoother than before.

According to Business Week, the new browser will make its way into Blackberry devices later this year. Until then, you can see the new browser in action in the video below. [via Bloomberg and Crackberry]
