I just bought a new BB Gemini and i was amazed. Being a normal phone user some of the features are really cool. But I just wanna ask about how to change the themes in my BB?

I am a developer and i had the luxury of working on this model.
It looks brilliant and it feels amazing in your hand. This has the best qwerty keypad. The keys are nicely spaced and when you press a key you know that you have pressed it. Also, because of the good spacing once you get used to the layout you can type blind folded! I have also used nokia 5730 and its qwerty was not that impressive after i used BB's.
The most impressive part is its optical track-pad. It is just marvelous! It is very sensitive and you dont have to move your thumb around a lot to navigate. The negative part about the track pad, which i should mention wont apply to most of the ppl, is that scrolling lengthy documents will be difficult. I had to navigate thru huge amounts of log files for debugging and it was a pain in the a$$.
It takes a lot of time to boot up but i was told that it is because of the BB OS and not the phones fault.
I did play around with the cam for 2 days. I should say it is way better than the 2.0MP of E63. Ppl who cry about it not having a flash should try using their head. Even if it had a flash the images taken in the dark with the use of a flash wont be good enough to get it printed. So i really dont think flash matters.
The last thing i used in it was the WiFi. Configuring wifi was very simple and it got connected pretty fast. Also the time for searching for any wireless network was pretty less. So, it scores very good on terms of wifi.
I dint use any other feature so i wont comment about any of that. Hope my experience helps others. and btw i would go for this anyday over e63.
I am planning on buying this. Good luck guys!

I just find this phone is the very basic BB (most affordable) so that they can chat(BB messenger) with people with BB bold/storm.
Function wise , i think Nokia, SonyEricsson have def. much much better Features.

GSMARENA says display is 2.6, but when checked in store they said its 2.46 and 8900 has 2.44 and on actual comparison the display difference between 8900 and 8520 is hardly noticeable. so i guess its 2.46 not 2.6
