It’s Blackberry leak fiesta today. Dakota isn’t the only one that has got its first unofficial outing. BGR has posted some exclusive info about the next-generation Curve and Torch 2 as well. The new Curve, codenamed as Apollo will bring exciting specs in the mid-range segment. The 11mm thin Curve will expectedly run Blackberry OS 6.1 and feature an 800MHz CPU, an HVGA display, quad-band GSM and tri-band 7.2Mbps HSPA support, 5MP camera, 512MB ROM and RAM, GPS, NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 and a 1050mAh battery.

Next up is the Torch 2 and going by the spec sheet, this looks to be the real deal.
