RIM BLACKBERRY CURVE 8520 QWERTY SMARTPHONE
Research In Motion (RIM) never fail to impress with each addition to their superb BlackBerry range of handsets, and the BlackBerry Curve 8520 is no exception. Even more important, it's now very affordable too.
The BlackBerry became famous for being the first phones that you could use for emailing, and the ever-popular email client is there supplemented by the easy to use, well spaced QWERTY keypad which means it's very easy to use for messaging, notes, calendar entries, in fact just about any application in which you would normally type. There are of course thousands of apps available to download from BlackBerry.
Possibly of most interest to BlackBerry fans is the new optical trackpad which is much easier and more pleasing to use than the trackball of previous models.
You also get Wi-Fi connectivity, stereo Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate, multiformat music player with 3.5mm headphone socket, 2 megapixel camera with an impressive 5x zoom and video recording, personal organiser, voice dialling, voice memo recorder and much more - see the feature list below!
