This BlackBerry codenamed "Gemini" has been confusing us for a while now. First, the Gemini was seen to be the BlackBerry 9300. Afterwards, we saw the BlackBerry 8325 which was also dubbed the Gemini name, but apparently that was an early prototype of the real model. Well, luckily RIM has changed the face of the Blackberry 8325 because they've come up with this slightly better looking smartphone. The BlackBerry Curve 8520 aka Gemini will have: an optical trackball, dedicated media buttons, and also a rubberized finish around the battery cover. The sad thing is that this BlackBerry will be lacking 3G and that could be heart-breaking for some users out there. The spec sheet has still not been revealed, but it's not camera-less. You can take a look at the link below, to see a couple more pictures about the BlackBerry Curve 8520 "Gemini" smartphone from RIM.

I talked about the BlackBerry Gemini before, but apparently my sources were incorrect and had a mix-up between two devices. So, the sexy BlackBerry 9300 (codenamed Javelin or Onyx, I'm not sure) was mistakenly placed with the Gemini codename, but this is in fact incorrect. The Gemini is actually the BlackBerry 8325. And my, oh my, it reminds us why BlackBerry's should indeed stay black. The BlackBerry 8325 looks like it is an ugly cross between the 8300 and the 8900. Not a good thing. The BlackBerry itself comes with OS 5.0, a 320 x 240 resolution, a QWERTY keypad (of course), Quad-band GSM / GPRS / EDGE, a 2.0MP camera, and also WiFi 802.11b/g (and possibly also n). Personally, I think it's an ugly looking BlackBerry, what do you think?
