T-Mobile USA is preparing to launch one of RIM's BlackBerry 7 smarthones sometime in November, the Torch 9810.

Leaked two weeks ago, T-Mobile's roadmap revealed a certain device dubbed Dumoine, which appears to be none other than the BlackBerry Torch 9810.

According to the latest hearsay, Torch 9810 is scheduled for a November 9 release at T-Mobile USA.

The information is also confirmed by the latest screenshot leaked by the guys over at TmoNews, which reveals that the carrier is now training its employees for the future release of the smartphone.

Still no word about the Torch 9810's price options, but the phone comes with full support for T-Mobile's 14.4Mbps HSPA+ network.

Unlike BlackBerry Bold 9900, the Torch 9810 will be delivered with Wi-Fi calling capability at launch, whereas users who own the Bold 9900 are still waiting for a software update to enable this feature.

Unveiled in August, along with Torch 9860 and Bold 9990, the Torch 9810 runs Research in Motion's (RIM) latest BlackBerry 7 operating system with Liquid Graphics technology.

With BlackBerry 7 the integrated BlackBerry browser is significantly faster, allowing for a more fluid web browsing experience.

The performance offered by the latest WebKit browser engine combined with the phone's new hardware configuration is up to 40% better than BlackBerry 6 based smartphones and 100% than BlackBerry 5 based smartphones.

In addition, the phone comes pre-loaded with a range of apps, including the Premium version of Documents To Go, which is now available for free, as well as a native PDF document viewer.

BlackBerry Torch 9810 comes with a 3.2-inch TFT capacitive touchscreen with 16 million colors support and 480 x 640 pixels resolution.

The usual full portrait QWERTY keyboard is also included, along with an optical trackpad and proximity sensor for auto turn-off.

On the inside, Torch 9810 is equipped with a single core 1.2 GHz processor, 8 GB of internal memory, 768 MB of RAM and microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB).
