At&t announced today a $99 Palm Centro in the GSM variety (Press Release). Unfortunately, it only comes with EDGE and not 3G. You can read the press release here for more info. Right now, I just want to show you some of the photos and share a couple 1st Impressions.

With our server move, I haven’t had a ton of time to play with this great looking $99 GSM Centro, but I used it 2 days. My 1st impression was WOW, that’s small! I got to play with Sprint’s version too, so it wasn’t a big shock how tiny, but it feels much smaller than you’d expect. Palm has done a great job with this device. It’s small, cute, but it also has limitations. Those limitations are quickly negated by the small price tag though.

As a phone, it was a pleasure to use. The keyboard works, but for big finger folks like me, it wasn’t exactly easy to use. Anyhow, dollar for dollar, the Palm Centro packs one hell of a punch and it’s a great entry level smartphone for anyone needing more than a feature phone can provide. Stay tuned for a full review soon. For now, let me share some photos! Check them out after the break…
