Palm Centro vs BlackBerry Pearl PDA France has posted pictures of the upcoming Palm Centro. The picture above shows just how small it is when compared to the tiny BlackBerry Pearl. The picture also clearly shows the Treo branding on the smartphone, it was thought the Centro might drop the Treo name with the Centro. I'm glad Palm is still calling it a Treo, why mess with success?;)

You can also see from the above picture the Centro uses the same Phone application as the Treo 680. This version of the Centro will run on the GSM network as seen by the Orange carrier name. Palm is expected to announce the Centro on September 12th for European market. Palm recently announced that Sprint would be the exclusive carrier of the Palm Centro here in the U.S. running on Sprint's CDMA high-speed EV-DO network. It's great to see that Palm has developed both a GSM and CDMA version of the Centro, releasing them around the same time will help Palm's bottom line.
