Long time ago, before you could call for delivery, was Caveguy – let’s call him that! So Caveguy was standing next to a tree (not “standing” for long as a matter of fact!) while shivering briefly as the cool breeze that heralds winter made its way through his furry breeches. He was waiting patiently for lightning to strike wondering how long he would have to keep eating raw brontosaurus, for stone’s sake!

Back when fire was the actual latest technology, there was no wondering about one’s origins, and evolution was still a blurry concept. Blaze was not up for grabs and when Caveguy finally got a hold of it, his quest was only at a rough beginning.

Then, much later, Caveos Guyopoulos, one of many Caveguy’s earliest antiquity descendants, was a living witness of the original perpetual Olympic Torch. That torch represented the flame once stolen by Prometheus from the God of the gods that had whole Mt. Olympus exclaiming: “Great Zeus!” Fire was definitely a keeper.

As for our two fellows, nowadays Research in Motion (RIM) is aiming no less with its new BlackBerry Torch, the brand new 6 OS-featured smartphone that will ignite on August 12. The mission is clear: getting back the market share lost to Apple and its iPhone. Like Caveguy, BlackBerry needs its Torch under full control, but unlike him, BlackBerry DOES have the burning ambition to reduce the competition to ashes. Mobilo inferno!

SherWeb to take part in the bonfire

As for us at SherWeb, we are proud and excited to support RIM’s BlackBerry Torch.

“It is the first smartphone to support BlackBerry 6, which has been previewed recently on the Inside BlackBerry Blog.”, claims Pierre-Olivier Descoteaux, Marketing and Communications Manager at SherWeb. “It opens up many new opportunities for our developer community from enhanced Java applications to game changing web applications or Widgets using HTML5 and CSS3.”

Until the BB Torch strikes, stop aping Caveguy and get a head start by downloading the new developer tools and simulator supporting BlackBerry 6.
