David Pogue (1) (2) offers one of the better synopses (what else is new?) of the latest device from Palm, the Centro. The Centro is a Treo, but has been rebranded in order, it seems, to reach a new demographic. It’s noticeably smaller than other recent Treos yet still retains all the features and the full QWERTY keyboard of its larger siblings. And while the screen has also been shrunken, it achieves the same resolution as that of the older Treos (320×320), making for a sharper display in a smaller space. It’s also $99 after rebates. Nice.
