I don't buy any WinMob product as long as it is possible. Palm devices sync with my Ubuntu without any trouble. Not many other phones do that. They sync perfectly with Windows/Outlook as well (in the office). Treo keyboards are similar and they are quite adequate (I have been using one for almost 2 years) I would buy it if it was a 3G phone (HSDPA at least).

Centrino was a platform label that Intel applied to notebooks with when the hardware met a certain approved power-saving criteria. That criteria was largely dependant on the processor (the Banias and Dothan Pentium M cores) but it also included the system and network chipset. @k

Some graphic designer just re-used the centrino screen shot on the moto. Ads like this are composites, they never use the actual image of the os that was taken by the photographer. They super impose a higer res version after the fact. In this case they just used the wrong one. No way this thing supports palm.

Did they not think that the all mighty BGR NOT somehow pick up on this? Silly silly corporate fools. Time for Sprint to hire a continuity expert. Keep up the amazing work BGR. Brooklyn, NYC is looking to you to for the usual top coverage you provide. P.S. For those who like the music in the latest TV ad: Detektivbyran is the band. Nice gaff Sprint.
