It hadn’t been announced before, but RIM’s year-end / Q4 fiscal 2011 earnings call uncovered a very good little bit of information surrounding BlackBerry OS 6.1. As you’ve likely learned by now, we weren’t exactly throwing our iPhones and Droids into the closest refuse bin after handling the Torch , and it kind of feels as though plenty of bigwigs at RIM were equally disappointed. In line with an issue in regards to the rollout of BB OS 6.1, we were told that it might truly be a “major upgrade” over what’s in the market now, and rather then being an incremental update, it’ll be more like “an overhaul.” The corporate made no bones about its excitement for the discharge, and admittedly, we’re having a troublesome time keeping our expectations in check after listening in. Thankfully, we’ll manage to get our paws on it in the future this spring, with a variety of elements to be teased at BlackBerry World this would. Naturally, we’ll be there to maintain you up-to-date with the way it’s rolling along.
