Today Palm announced that AT&T will begin selling the Palm Centro for $99. This variant of the Centro is a quad-band GSM/EDGE device and can roam between U.S. and European networks. Otherwise the specs of the device are unchanged, but it comes packaged with some AT&T-specific services, such as XM Radio Mobile, Push to Talk and MusicID. It is available in white immediately, and AT&T will be selling a black version in about four weeks. Sprint began selling the CDMA Centro in October.

Finally!

Finally, the Centro on a network that actually works!

I'm finally going to ditch my drawer full of prepaid AT&T and T-Mobile phones.
If you're gonna take a cheap shot on Sprint try not to bash their top of the line network... you make yourself look stupid

Damn!

I wish it were Windows OS, like the European version is.

That and it being 3g. Sprint at least has EVDO.

I think physical size of this device would benefit from the Symbian OS, if it were possible. Windows might fare good for it as well. This centro seems to be Palms last ditch to get back in the game - they might as well create versions for all likes.

Well if size is an issue and you are upgrade eligible then yeah. I still think the 680 is superior phone.

Some how this seems...

A whole lot better than the Sprint version. I mean I don't know a whole lot out the GSM models but you know.. the way they showed the screen. Anyways, what do you think about this?
