UPDATE: T-Mobile USA users will get the phone from Aug 5 for $130.
Research in Motion has lifted the veil off another phone from the Curve family targeted mainly at entry-level smartphone users. Despite being on the lower end, the Curve 8520 brings in nifty features like multimedia playback buttons on the top of the phone and trackpad instead of Blackberry’s iconic trackball. On the internal features front, the phone supports global GSM bands with EDGE and no 3G. However, good thing is that the phone has Wi-Fi so as to allow users to surf at high speeds.
Other things include a 2.64-inch screen (320×240), 2MP camera with 5x digital zoom, 3.5m headphone jack, microSD card slot, Bluetooth, a full physical QWERTY keyboard and out-of-the-box Mac compatibility.
There’s no word on the T-Mobile US pricing but Vodafone UK users will get it on contract for around £25 a month.

It’s quite good, 4 stars if you ask me.It’s got Internet(free),Applications(sometimes pay),BlackBerry messenger(free),and millions more! It however in my opinion is no comparison to the Iphone 4,which has a much better application system and is quicker and easier,and i prefer touch screen!
