Blackberry TorchIf you were eagerly awaiting this Friday's launch of RIM's newest handheld smartphone, the Blackberry Torch 9800, you'll have to wait a little bit longer. Rogers announced this afternoon that it is delaying the Torch's launch until September 30.  

Details on when the Torch, which includes both RIM's trademark keyboard and a touchscreen, will launch at each of the other major telecommunication providers is still scarce. Bell had previously said that it would begin selling the device on October 1, but its website currently says that the Torch is coming soon, without a specific release date noted. The other member of the Big Three, Telus, has not announced when it will begin selling the Torch either.
