Remember the Palm devices? Well some of you might remember them and it wasn't that long ago that the Palm Treo 680 was released. Well, what most people might think is a dying brand is still breathing and they've launched their latest Palm PDA phone called the Palm Centro.

With voice, text, IM, email, web, contact and calendar capabilities, a full-color touch screen and full keyboard, Centro brings Palm simplicity and organization to customers who want to stay connected with co-workers, friends and family.  With a new compact design, Centro is the smallest and lightest Palm phone to date. Centro has a modern, stylish look that feels comfortable in the hand, pocket or evening purse.

Unfortunately, we here in Malaysia won't be seeing the Palm Centro yet as it is only available in the US via Sprint come mid-October in onyx black or ruby red. However, sooner or later it will hit our shores and Palm fans can rejoice over a new device. 

Read on for more info on the Palm Centro. 

Centro was designed as a great phone, messaging, and organizational device, and is incredibly easy to use. It allows users to easily connect with friends, family and co-workers by voice, email or text. And with its full keyboard, Centro makes it easy to quickly and efficiently type text messages and respond to emails, communicating complete thoughts and ideas. Since Centro comes with the Palm OS(R), it offers all of the great organizer functionality that Palm is renowned for, such as a detailed and integrated Contacts list. Also, the simple and handy calendar makes it easier to manage increasingly busy lives, whether it's juggling business meetings or keeping track of school activities.
