Pros: nice keyboard, awesome sms interface, nice camera, touchscreen is very nice, good calendar system, slick design
Cons: the palmOS is nice however it has a problem with answering calls from deep sleep. It is known to have freezing problems.
There is one solution to keep the phone from freezing when answering calls and tat is to disable the touchscreen when receiving phone calls. just use the green phone button to pick up instead of tapping "answer" on the touchscreen.
Other Thoughts: overall a good device if you can get over the freezing problem.
If you plan on downloading games for it, get SkyForce. its the best looking game for palm i think.

Pros: The Palm OS is very easy to use and works well with the touchscreen. The audio is very clear and loud making calls easy to understand. The speaker phone is also surprisingly good allowing you to hear easily in noisy environments. Large selection free of add-on software available.
Cons: No WiFi or 3G. Not really a problem but it makes browsing the internet a little slow. I wish it had it with had WiFi to tap into access points available at a number of public places/businesses and/or had 3G allowing quicker access through the cell towers.
Other Thoughts: You cannot do anything but love this phone. Almost unlimited features available with the right software. $150 unlocked/without a contract. (I pulled the SIM card out of my AT&T GoPhone and stuck it in the Centro. Now I have a smartphone on a prepaid plan that ONLY costs me $100 A YEAR to use.)
