Comments on: Palm Centro unlocked GSM review – screen http://tamspalm.tamoggemon.com/2008/04/27/palm-centro-unlocked-gsm-review-screen/ Palm OS / web OS news and opinion source Thu, 09 Feb 2012 07:33:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tam Hanna, Site Founder http://tamspalm.tamoggemon.com/2008/04/27/palm-centro-unlocked-gsm-review-screen/comment-page-1/#comment-202776 Tam Hanna, Site Founder Tue, 29 Apr 2008 08:24:40 +0000 http://tamspalm.tamoggemon.com/?p=2634#comment-202776 Hi Folks, thank you all or talking back! Apparently, my Centro review causes controversy - which I see gladly ;). First of all, the two device's prices are very similar - both boxen are in the 300€ price range for an Austrian. Generally, my review compares the 680 and the Centro from a power user's view - I will make this clear in the verdict which is coming soon. People with low demand will definitely be happy with the box - but these usually do not read TamsPalm ;). I hope that I have now been able to clarify my situation a bit... Best regards and thanks for talking back Tam Hanna Hi Folks,
thank you all or talking back! Apparently, my Centro review causes controversy – which I see gladly ;) .

First of all, the two device’s prices are very similar – both boxen are in the 300€ price range for an Austrian.

Generally, my review compares the 680 and the Centro from a power user’s view – I will make this clear in the verdict which is coming soon. People with low demand will definitely be happy with the box – but these usually do not read TamsPalm ;) .

I hope that I have now been able to clarify my situation a bit…

Best regards and thanks for talking back

There's no comparison between a 600 and 300 dollar device. The fact that the 300 dollar doesn't perform to the satisfaction of critics is expected, not a disappointment. And the screen reflectiveness is confusing me. I don't want the screen to reflect when I'm outside. If it does, I see the leaves of the tree above me rather than the ebook I'm trying to read. I think you mean it reflect light instead of dimming the screen, but in that photo I can see the centro screen a lot better than the treo's. I agree completely with medevilenemy.

The centro isn't meant for "power users". It is an entry-level device, and consequently users should not expect high or even mid range parts. As sales have shown, the device is near perfect for its purpose... I don't hear much of people returning their centro because the screen doesn't have high-fidelity color Those complaints are meaningless taken in context. The centro isn’t meant for “power users”.
