BGR has gotten the first scoop as always on inside info on the new BlackBerry.  This is definitely breaking news, and may piss off a lot of Bold users!  As crazy as it seems, there is a Curve releasing with 3G capability now, but WiFi and GPS functionalities are not confirmed yet.  Give the Gemini 9300 all 3 (WiFi, GPS, and 3G) and Bold users (including myself) will be furious.  Why?  Well let’s see.  We have the BlackBerry Bold which is an amazing phone, being the same size as the 88xx series almost.  Then you have this practical Curve with all the same capabilities, just a smaller convenient size. 

Anyway, BGR has confirmed these specs on the device:

* The screen will be larger than the BlackBerry 8900, and that will also include a higher resolution
* The CPU will also be beefed up. We’re not sure if this means it will include something more powerful than the Bold’s 624MHz processor or not, but we’d like to think so.
* The device is said to be silver (think BlackBerry 8830)
* The keyboard is a little more rounded than the BlackBerry 8900
* The Send/End keys are rounded instead of being flat on the sides
* Styling is not drastically different — it keeps with the 8900/Storm styling
* It of course rocks quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA
* Wi-Fi and GPS was not confirmed, but we’d say there’s about a 99.99% chance
* Camera specs were not confirmed as well, but you can bet you’re looking at 3.2 megapixels or better
