BlackBerry Curve 8520 "Gemini" image surfaces

Well, what do we have here? The folks at Crackberry seem to have gotten their hands on a pic of the BlackBerryCurve 8520, a.k.a. "Gemini." From what we can see and from what they tell us, there's an optical trackball, dedicated media player buttons, and a "rubberized" body. Lack of 3G is a big bummer, and we're sure the non-classic trackball is gonna ruffle some feathers, but the hardware's enticing enough for us to give it a look over. Intrigued?

Wow. The optical trackball is gonna be popular with the folks who are always replacing their physical ones due to dust, etc.
