The "Centro" includes features such as a one-touch speaker phone, conference calling, Bluetooth connectivity, etc. All conversations can be saved in a chat-style view, just like instant messaging, so that users can see the entire conversation unfold. For multimedia fans, the 'Pocket Tunes' feature lets users side-load songs and manage music, audio books, and videos easily. Apart from these, the "Centro" has all the regular Palm smart phone features -- including built-in digital camera.

"Centro" is priced at Rs 13,990, and will be available at IT retail stores in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Pune, and Chandigarh. Meanwhile, Palm has associated with mobile networks like Vodafone and Airtel to widen its reach in the country.

US edition costs $100 <= INR 4000/ Lagta hai Palm India wants to promote Grey Market. With 13,990/- one can buy three Centro.

$100 is with a two year contract, they are otherwise about $350-400, so I think the Indian price is actually great, and indicates Palm that, for once, wants to be a serious contender here.

Guys, I got mine yesterday from PDA Cafe @ Forum Mall Bangalore. Its available for 14500 Rs. Its beautiful. Having used Windows mobiles, I am amazed at the speed and the intuitiveness of the interface. It scores 7/10 on the beauty of the user interface, but 10/10 on usability of the interface.
