yeah bb curve 3g is a good choice.. i myself use one.. this was my first experience with bb but make sure you get yourself a bb plan with the handset.. clarity is ok ok.. but firget about good gaming experiance..

if you can extend your budget a bit go for bold 9780 which is a better.. or check out bb curve 9630..

There are practically no reasons you should go for a blackberry phone (under 20k) unless you're buying it for BBM, which will be available in other platforms soon. Care to explain this preference?

nah! don't go for a blackberry for these reasons.. its a sheer waste of money.. better get a good android phone within the budget..
you can make your jiju and sis install WhatsApp in their bb's and install in your galaxy 3 and chat.. bbm for just two people is crap..
i played undercover on my bb but it sucked! also none of the good games are free.. if you want gaes then why not go for iPhone 3gs??
it would be a rock solid choice in your budget...

alternately you can consider the galaxy s or buy motorola defy and save yourself a lot of cash!
