- about the battery,to me it has a moderate ability..

- normally i will charge my gemini 2 or 2 1/2 days under the moderate use..but if i heavy used it then i need to charge it 1 or 1 1/2 days..

- keypad aint to soft n hard (normal)..

- well,the wifi range is depends on how u n ur device is measured from the wifi point..if u near the wifi range,u will definitely got the strong signals..if u r out of that coverange range of coz u will get the low signal or even no signal at all..

- yes,trackpad is superb..

- yes,true mate,the sunlight legibility quite good..

- Totally value for money n worth it..

    I'm getting the BlackBerry 8520 this wednesday (Today is Monday) and I am uber excited. I first wanted a Nokia e63 then a e71. But this BB is a very very good phone for teenagers like myself on a low budget income like I have. I love this BB. It's pretty :)
    CANT WAIT!

              I am in an insurmountable dilemma over a choice between curve 8520 and curve 8900. All i know is that i want either of the two. Cost is not a constraint, utility is. I am rather rough on phones but Trackball remains a concern. Though my heart goes out for the better screen resolution. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

                      Using this phone from 3 months...

                      ~ Well, the phone has a poor battery,
                      can't even stand for 24 hrs with moderate callin n sms'ing

                      ~ Keypad a bit hard to press...
                      ~ The Wi-fi Range not the strongest as compared to peer brands.
                      ~ Trackpad is awesome
                      ~ sunlight legibility quite gud.

                      Totally value dominated phone....

                          sweet.. is my first BB. i love it much :)
                          the cons that i face from this phone are without GPS and low battery life[i'm a heavry user]. otherwise, it consider perfect for me.
                          go for it. recommented.
