No surprise here that my bud ‘CrackBerry’ Kevin has scored yet another BlackBerry first-look. This time the images are of the BlackBerry 8530, aka the ‘Aries’. The Aries is a sister-device to the BlackBerry Curve 8520 ‘Gemini’… Basically the same device with CDMA insides for Bell, Sprint, Verizon, etc…

I should point out that the ’8530′ is an assumed model number based on past naming conventions from RIM. Makes sense to me as well, but heck, just wanted to point this out… you never know.

You can check out a few more shots over at CrackBerry, or hit up one of our past Gemini posts here, here or here and pretend its the Aries… the devices are practically identical :)
