In view of the ongoing festive season in India, Research in Motion (RIM) is offering a free BlackBerry Curve 8520 with the purchase of its recently launched tablet PlayBook.

"This festive season on purchase of BlackBerry PlayBook on MRP (max retail price), BlackBerry is offering a free BlackBerry Curve 8520 and a BlackBerry PlayBook accessory," says RIM in a statement. The offer is valid for all the PlayBook variants -- 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB models.

The PlayBook 16 GB variant is available for Rs 27,990, while the 32 GB comes for Rs 32,990. The 64 GB model is priced at Rs 37,990.

The BlackBerry Curve 8520 is available for Rs 9,600 at the retail and online stores. The Curve 8520 is considered to be an entry-level BlackBerry device. The device features a 2.46 inch TFT display, 2 MP camera, 256 MB of internal storage which could be extended up to 32 GB via microSD.

The offer is valid till November 30, 2011.

RIM's free Curve 8520 offer seems to be a good deal for the Indian customers and also for the company looking to push the PlayBook sales in India. It may be recalled that the PlayBook has failed to change the fortunes of RIM, which is facing stiff competition from Apple's iPhone and Google's Android devices.
