Palm announced it will start producing the unlocked version of its Centro smartphone. The device will cost $299 and will sport the same characteristics as the quad-band GSM/EDGE version from AT&T. It can be purchased directly from the company's website.

In addition, Palm also announced that Google will be offering its Maps for Mobile with My Location service to Centro owners.

Palm and Rogers Wireless have recently announced the Canadian launch of the popular Palm Centro smartphone.
The handset will be available for $199 CAD for existing customers and $299 CAD for new subscribers, however they will all have to sign a three-year contract with a required voice and data plan.

We don't get it... It looks like Verizon intends to sell the Palm Centro for a whole $269.99 on a 2-year contract before $70 mail-in rebate starting June 13.

Maybe there's a typo here, or will they include a complementary $100 bill with each handset they sell?

Palm Centro is now available from all U.S. national operators.

The last carrier to join the group was Verizon. The handset will be available in blue color, the same that was released recently in Mexico, with more versions to come.

It looks like Sprint will soon stop offering the Palm Treo 755p, as the handset has been recently removed from the carrier's website.

This makes sense considering that the Palm Centro is now the king of the hill at Sprint.

Anyway, you will still be able to get the 755p model at some popular on-line retailers.

A blue version of the GSM Palm Centro smartphone is now available in Mexico through Telcel and Movistar. As expected, no specs were changed, just the color.

Nice, I wonder why AT&T overlooked this one.

Thanks to wirefly.com, new Sprint subscribers who sign a 2-year contract can now get an Onyx Black Palm Centro absolutely free.

That means no shipping charges, no rebates to deal with, no minimum plan requirements, simply free.

We know Palm Centro is far not the best smartphone available; still it's a nice handset to get when you don't have to pay for it.

It looks like AT&T will soon be offering a "rainbow" of Palm Centro handsets, as you can see on the picture to the right.

Most of you probably know that the carrier will release an “obsidian black” Centro in a month, so the rest of this color range could be additional GSM models.

AT&T plans to release the Palm Centro phone on February 19th.

The price is not confirmed yet, but we expect $99 with a 2-year contract. Just to remind you, the Palm Centro is an ugly and pretty low-end CDMA smartphone with a square 1.56" screen, QWERTY keyboard, 1.3Mpix camera, and support for EDGE data.

There is a high probability that the stylish Palm Centro smartphone will be soon available from AT&T.

Sprint is currently the exclusive carrier for the handset, but their deal with Palm is about expire.

And even if the image you see here is fake, we know for sure that other carriers are anxious to get the device, and AT&T stands first in line.
