Photos: BlackBerry Curve 8520 hands-on
BlackBerry hopes the Curve 8520 will tempt people who don't use smart phones to give one a go, thanks to its low price. It doesn't have 3G or GPS, but it does have EDGE and Wi-Fi, as well as heaps of features inherited from pricier Berries.
Software such as the Facebook app, and the biggish Qwerty keyboard make it a fantastic social-networking phone. Facebook and Twitter can run in the background and alert you to new tedious updates, and you can merge Facebook and your contacts to see a friend's profile pic in your address book.
Getting new apps is fairly painless thanks to the BlackBerry App World software bazaar.
