http://na.blackberry.com/eng/d...roducts=1686

It says the 8520 doesn't have a color display... was really wondering about that, and is there MUCH of a difference between the color display of the 8900 and the Gemini (8520)? Any help or advice would BE highly appreciated!

I got my 8520 and my partner has 8900

there are only few things make the 2 difference

1. camera
2. gps
3. screen display
4. price

now if ur looking for bb which is not pricey. better if u pick 8520 which is almost identical to 8900. good phone for a good price

If you want email and a solution is blackberry then buy Blackberry, if want Exchange buy Nokia E71.
But the best phone for email, price and usability is Blackberry 8900.

No flash?!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
Why no flash?! I've got a BlackBerry 8300 and when you activate flash and then use the video camera it becomes a flashlight! Little things that can make a phone a little more useful...
