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
