BlackBerry Gemini

So for instance, reviewer Simon Sage at Intomobile noted that “the 8520 is aiming for a more budget-conscious crowd, which certainly earns it some brownie points on the price front, but it feels like just a bit too much was left out. It’s still a stand-up BlackBerry, and will handle e-mail, music, basic browsing and the odd application just fine, just don’t put your expectations too high for anything beyond that.”

Another interesting feature is the design of the new device. On Mobilewhack the reviewer commented that: “the most glaring surprise would of course be the square-shaped optical trackball (something like Nokia’s navipad) which replaces the traditional trackball found on other RIM devices.”
