If you ever wanted to grab the Palm Centro but just didn’t like signing a contract, now’s your chance. Palm seems to be clearing out the inventory to prepare for the Pre launch. As a result, you can grab the GSM version of the highly-popular Centro for $199. Three color options are available – Ruby Red, Glacier White and Cobalt Blue.
It’s a great way to enter the smartphone world and eventually own a piece of history, once Pre is launched and Palm OS officially goes under. The offer is available on Palm’s site only, while other retailers like Amazon are selling the device for $249, though, that could change soon.
Aside from the device itself, in the box you’ll also get a battery, AC charger, USB sync cable, documentation and the “Getting Started CD.”

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
