Introducing the BlackBerry Curve 8520 and you can have it FREE!

RIM has given its fans plenty to be excited about in 2009. They kicked it off with the BlackBerry Curve 8900, and marched through to the Tour, their most powerful CDMA device to date. In the near future we can look forward to the Onyx and the Storm 2, plus a slippery device known now as the Magnum. With all of these high-end devices taking up our attention, it’s easy to lose sight of a lesser offering. This is the case with the BlackBerry Curve 8520, better known by its production name, Gemini. The low-end device hit T-Mobile and Wal-Mart shelves this week amid, well, not much fanfare. Still, there’s a lot to like about the new device.

One thing you will just LOVE about the new Curve 8520 is that you can get it FREE for a limited time only. Continue reading to learn a little more about the brand new Gemini and to find out how you can get yours (and many other models) for free.

The first and most noticeable difference with the Gemini is the change from a trackball to a trackpad. Trackballs can be a pain in the ass: you have to clean them and sometimes replace them. The trackpad is digital, so there’s no mechanism which can break down. Also, because there is no rolling device, it’s harder for dirt to get behind it. It might take some getting used to, but from all anecdotes the trackpad is an excellent addition to the BlackBerry interface.

The Curve 8520 also brings a greater level of memory, 256MB on board vs. 64 on the first edition Curves. This might not mean a lot for some, but for application hounds it means more free memory for apps, plus the ability to retain more free memory, which will help the device run faster.

You can check out the Curve with this nifty video walk-through, courtesy of the good folks at Phone Scoop:

Yeah Yeah I Know The 8520 Rocks But How Do You Get The FREE Curves???

Now that you are up to speed on what awaits you when you pick up your new Curve 8520 (Gemini), here is how you can get one for free. Yes I said FREE!

From now until Monday August 10th, 2009 you can get free BlackBerry Curves from your favorite providers including: Sprint, AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile. The free curves are being made available to new customers as well as those looking to upgrade their devices. If this sounds like you, then there is no reason not to pop on over to the sale page for your desired provider and take advantage of their timely generosity.

Below is a list of all the models of Curve being offered in this promotion. They are separated by provider. Please note that there is one link for new customers and one link for upgrades for each device listed.

ATTENTION: Last time we ran a similar promotion there were a few people who were disappointed to find that they were not eligible for the promotion for one reason or another. To avoid frustration, PLEASE READ ANY AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS presented to you at the time of the order. If you are looking to get a free Curve for a third or fourth line on an existing plan you will most likely be ineligible.
