spacer




After recently announcing the sale of its one-millionth Palm Centro in the United States, Palm, Inc. has introduced its popular smartphone in the Philippines.

With voice, text, email, web, contact and calendar capabilities, a colour touch screen and full keyboard, the glacier white Centro brings Palm simplicity and organisation to users who want to stay connected with friends, family and co-workers.

"Centro is the perfect choice for anyone thinking about stepping up to a smartphone – it’s rich in features but also comes in a small, cool design," said Olivier Rozay, Palm’s regional director for Asia Pacific. "The combination of keyboard, touch screen and Palm’s trademark ease of use makes Centro ideal for staying in touch."

Centro is the smallest and lightest Palm phone to date, with a modern, stylish look that feels comfortable in the hand, and discreetly fits in a pocket or clutch. Users can keep track of social engagements, check stock quotes and stay up-to-date on the latest news — all in one small, fun compact phone.

Centro comes with Palm OS, which offers all of the great organiser functionality for which Palm is renowned, such as a detailed and integrated contacts list. The calendar makes it easier to manage increasingly busy lives, whether it’s juggling business meetings or keeping track of drinks with friends. Centro also is highly customizable, with thousands of applications available to help users with everything from maintaining a healthy eating plan to keeping track of golf handicaps or personal expenses.
