Low priced BlackBerry and Nokia E Series

Hallo Skerians,
was wondering if any of you has tried the low priced BB model 8310 (i think. I saw it being reviewed on CNBC's Tech@Work. In Nairobi it is going for about 8-9k. For those who have used BB on prepaid, which I prefer, how is the experience. While at it can somebody advise on whether the Nokia E Series phones going for about the same price as the BB are genuine. I am tempted by these two and I would like to buy one for Xmas. Contributions highly welcome.

Of late there are so many fake phones from china...there blacberry is actually not a blackberry device.it doesn't support the the blackberry service. On the other Hand the Nokia E-series going for between 7k-10k is equally a hoax.it oly supports gprs unlike the original E-series which is HSDPA (3G)

Nokia seems to have killed Blackberry with the introduction of Nokia Messaging Service (google it). It is on trial and I have been using it for the last one month - still free until trial ends.
I have configured my email accounts (two yahoo, two gmail) into it and I get my mail delivered immediately it is sent.
Nokia intend to charge for the service, I guestimate it will probably be US$ 10-20 a year, way cheaper than the monthly 2K our mobile companies currently charge for Blackberry.
