This is the first BlackBerry rumors of the New Year: BlackBerry 9300 ‘Gemini’, a possible successor of the 8900 and can be considered a “3G BlackBerry Curve.”

The Boy Genius, who broke the news, tells us the possible-details:

• The screen will be larger than the BlackBerry 8900, and that will also include a higher resolution
• The CPU will also be beefed up.
• The device is said to be silver.
• 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.

Going from the above actual photo (or the Photoshop’s mockup?), despite it keeps with the 8900/Storm style, I really like the design. Looks nice and elegant. How do you think?
