Frenny Bawa, Vice President, RIM said, "The launch of BlackBerry Curve 8520 in India on Tuesday was not a reaction to Nokia's E-series. We are pioneers in sm
artphone. We do not need to react to any market development."

The 8520 comes with a two megapixel camera with support for video recording. The battery is a 1150 mAhr, one good for up to 4.5 hours of talk time and 17 days of standby time. The Nokia E-series are one of the most powerful business handsets offering mobility to smart businesses and professionals on the move. The E-series flaunts a new line of business-optimized devices.
