India’s G-Fone G588 is like a dual SIM BlackBerry
Users in search of a dual SIM BlackBerry smartphone will probably not have one too soon – not an original one and not from RIM, anyway.
But if you’re in India, you can get the G-Fone G-588, which looks like a BlackBerry Curve 8900 with a d-pad instead of a trackball.
The G-Fone G-588 is a dual SIM phone that can be used on both GSM and CDMA networks. Its other features include a full QWERTY keyboard, social networking integration (through Nimbuzz), 2.2 inch QVGA display, Bluetooth, MP3 player, FM radio, Opera Mini, an Indian Calendar that “serves as a guiding force for the practice of various Hindu rituals & festivals”, 1.3MP camera and MicroSD card support.


Apparently, the G-Fone G-588 is available in India as of now via Bright Telecom, for only 4,799 INR (about $105).
