Bangalore: Research in Motion , the Blackberry maker has planned to launch a new operating system 'Blackberry 7' prior to QNX Operating system.
The new operating system is likely to fetch its users more pre-installed apps, voice activated searches, and smoother user experience. It powers the new Liquid Graphics touch screen which offers up to 60 frames-per-second performance with instant UI response for touch-based navigation. It also offers easy web browsing, pictures, video and graphics-intensive gaming. One notable feature is that the users will be able to manage the personal and corporate content separately.
This new operating system will not be available in the older version of the Blackberry which do not have such processors and will be accessible only on dual core processor.
Although RIM has been working wonders on Android machine for its Playbook tablet, this new operating system will not be available in Android. Apart from Android, Flash will also not be included by Blackberry 7. This is on account of RIM's effort to concentrate on QNX OS to support Flash content in the web browser.
Blackberry 7 has not been able to raise the level of curiosity among the users and develops as many things have been taking place in and around QNX OS; the limelight has been stolen by it. Blackberry 7 smartphones is expected to go on sale next year.
