If you're intrigued by RIM's latest smartphone, the BlackBerry Torch, then we've got a treat for you: gory shots of the device's insides!

Announced earlier this week and launching on August 12, the BlackBerry Torch packs BlackBerry 6, a 5 megapixel cam with flash, full QWERTY on a portrait slider, 802.11n, 4GB of storage along with a 4GB microSD card, 512MB of ROM and 512MB RAM, and a 480x360 3.2-inch touchscreen display.

The nice people over at CrackBerry have sacrificed an early BlackBerry Torch unit to the tech gods and given the device the full teardown treatment. Click through to see the full gallery of tear down photos.
