Well, we have come across a few in our time. And, these are the best - and you can wash them. The ultra high-clarity plastic that they're manufactured from protects your screen like a dream, and we've even been able to increase the thickness without impairing screen brightness or clarity. Proporta realise that sometimes applying screen protectors can be a bit fiddly, so each kit contains a screen cleaning cloth and an application card to make perfect-fitting quick and easy.*Image for demonstration purposes only

Palm have always been known for their business phones and the centro does not disappoint. It is much less bulky and easier to hold than previous models and may therefore appeal to the more style conscious business person.
The Centro retains the same operating system as previous Palm's and this can be a little confusing at times, it is not especially flash and often looks rather retro however it is a solid system which works well. The camera is not great quality but this is a phone designed for business and on that you cannot fault it; the calender and other applications make it easy to organise yourself and the contact list is extensive with the opportunity to associate many details with each contact.
One small issue is that the on/off button can be pressed unintentionally but again it is simply a case of getting used to it!
Overall the Palm Centro is a good, durable and useful phone which will without doubt help manage a busy schedule and life
Advantages: qwerty keyboard, touch screen, cool features Disadvantages: sometimes turns off when put in a pocket, not the best reception
I love my palm centro, yet sometimes( because of the phone design) I will accidentaly turn the phone funtion off and miss an important call or message. The qwerty keyboard is very easy to use and is not hard on the tips of ones fingers like some other qwerty keyboards. I do not like that one cannot dial while being in other parts of the phone besides being in the "phone" program, yet i do like how once a number is put on speed dial the speed dial ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Palm Centro
Advantages: Many different features. Disadvantages: Hard to get use to.
I really enjoy owning a Palm Centro. The features can help any busy person get organized with a calender, email, and detailed contacts list. It's difficult to use at first until you get used to working the phone. I would suggest reading the manual once you get it. I like that you can catagorize your favorite applications into one folder so they are all there for you to use instead of searching. The picture quality is not excellent but ok for a phone. ...

Advantages: Keyboard work flawlessly, Easy to use, Has HSDPA, Great business phone Disadvantages: Slow Operating System, Battery drains quickly, Poor camera
I bought Treo 750 around four months behind, to replace my old-horrible-four-years-old cell phone. The reason I choose Treo 750 as my new replacement cellphone is simple, because it has QWERTY keyboard and I have used the Palm before and I have been a devoted fan of the operating system.
Treo 750 is a very good and practical device. Powered Samsung processor, 300MHz, for me its pretty fast for phone applications. However, the processor speed Its size, not fast enough for applications, especially those required higher speed processor such as games. Treo 750 screen resolution also too small compared to other palm based mobile phones, it has only 240 x 240 TFT touchscreen, smaller than 320 x 320 that PalmCentro has.
What I like from this phone are
1- The keyboard works so great, very comfort, I can use the phone only with one ...

Manufacturer's product description
Palm Centro gives you voice, text, IM, email and web, all in a phone that's a lot smaller than you think. It even has a touchscreen and a full keyboard, so you can say L8R to those tricky keys on your cell phone. Carry names and numbers, shoot photos and video, and meet up with friends.
