RIM is really upping their game with this release: they&#8217;re making their OS more touchscreen-friendly, revamping the entire UI to be a lot prettier and more user friendly, making notifications easy to get to, adding a webkit-based browser, and even changing their app launcher up by adding clearer categories.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we&#8217;d be remiss if we didn&#8217;t mention the latest buyout rumor du jour &#8211; RIM. &nbsp;This time it&#8217;s from the <a href=\"http:\/\/crackberry.com\/more-blackberry-bold-slider-photos-emerge\">Toronto Globe and Mail<\/a>, who cite analyst speculation but rightly smack it all down. Now that we&#8217;ve seen that RIM is aggressively working on improving their own OS instead of looking for a from-scratch jumpstart, we think it&#8217;s safe to say that the chances of RIM being interested in Palm are rapidly approaching zero.<\/p>\n<p>Combine that with the <a href=\"http:\/\/crackberry.com\/more-blackberry-bold-slider-photos-emerge\">rumored BlackBerry vertical slider<\/a>&nbsp;and Palm definitely is going to have some strong competition on their hands.
