Canadian cell phone maker that Research In Motion (RIM) is currently preparing to launch several new BlackBerry devices, BlackBerry Touch one of which is known as Monaco and Monza, which is a full touchscreen phone.

Both new devices are going with a different connectivity, the BlackBerry Monaco with CDMA connectivity and will land on Verizon Wireless, and BlackBerry Monza with GSM connectivity support.



Rumor said the new phones will be equipped without SurePress technology and much thinner than previous BlackBerry devices.

In addition, the new BlackBerry Monaco and Monza will use the latest RIM OS BlackBerry OS 6.1, and will require ID BlackBerry to log into the system, a feature that will be introduced on the new platform versions.

ID BlackBerry will replace the PIN, but the next version of the BlackBerry OS will reportedly be very similar to BlackBerry OS 6.

While there is no info when the new phone will be released, rumor has it that the BlackBerry Touch may be introduced in May in the BlackBerry World, along with a host of other handsets from RIM, including the BlackBerry Bold Touch, Touch BlackBerry Curve, or BlackBerry Torch 2.
