Whether you’re eligible for upgrade or want to open up a new line, you can get the red or white BlackBerry Torch 9800 for only $29.99 at the PocketBerry Store. Just last week we started seeing the white Torch hit the inventory, but now it looks like both colors are officially available. As you know, AT&T retail stores have lowered the Torch price to $99.99 which we already hat at the PocketBerry Store from launch date. So as an even better promo, it’s only a fraction of the price at $29.99.

Before you all read in looking for the answer – no, there is no change log again. I have yet to see the official IM clients for BlackBerry ever get change logs come to think of it. Usually it’s just quiet bug fixes and nothing really on the UI any way. It’s still nice to know what issues get addressed when updated no matter how little or big it is. So this update for all IM clients including Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, and ICQ. You can head over to BlackBerry App World to download all these updates, or manually (directly) using the links below:
