The navigation bar now allows you see the shortcuts in two rows, 5 in each, or can be stretched all over the screen and moreover all the operations can be done within seconds using the touch screen. Speed has been an issue for the Blackberry browsers in the past, but with the OS 6 browsers it can really speed up the browsing with impressive JavaScript and Page rendering supports. Email service has been a special feature for Blackberry; the Torch with OS 6 comes with a much touch friendly and enhanced email service.
