The soon to be released BlackBerry Curve 8520 gets a review over at Phonearena. It looks like this BlackBerry is destined to be an entry level model for T-Mobile (my guess is that it’ll be a freebie within a short time of launch). The screen resolution takes a puzzling step back to 320×240 (both the recent 8900 and Bold have 480×320 screens) and Phonearena seems tentative about what is really the only new feature — a navigational track pad instead of track ball – calling it “good after you get used to it”. They also weren’t thrilled about outgoing call quality. Read the full review below.
