Well it looks like an update to the BlackBerry Torch will be out later this year, late 3rd quarter. Details of the BlackBerry Torch 2 have come out. While the looks of the device seem to remain the same, it's whats under the hood which is impressive. While there were several complaints that RIM used a 600MHz processor in the original Torch, the Torch 2 will have a 1.2MHz processor.

Here are the full specs:

• 1.2GHz processor
• Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE
• Tri-band HSPA 14.4Mbps
• 3.2-inch VGA 640 x 480 capacitive display
• 8GB built-in memory
• 512MB RAM
• Bluetooth 2.1
• GPS
• NFC
• 5-megapixel camera with flash
• Magnetometer
• Accelerometer
• Proximity sensor
• 1300 mAh battery
• BlackBerry OS 6.1

If you were underwhelmed by the BlackBerry Torch, the Torch 2 looks like it should be a huge step up.
