Was looking at the Blackberry Curve 8520 for sale online I was just wondering is there any major difference between this phone and newer releases. Does it have BBM and When was it released ????

It's getting on a bit, the most recent budget Blackberry would be the Curve 9320. The 9320 has newer software, a slightly improved hardware spec and a slightly better camera.

The 9320 also has 3G while the 8520 is 2G only. I don't think there's any reason to buy an 8520 tbh.

Do yourself a favour. If you really are set on a blackberry (I have no idea why you would be), then don't get the 8520. From my experience they are the model that causes the vast majority of problems.
