Palm Sprint Centro in Olive Green: a closer look

The Centro’s keyboard also feels as if it is an upgraded material, but still the same Palm OS Garnet v4.5.9, but there is that enlarge RAM and the enhancements to Google Maps, My Location, and the addition of Palm’s new Facebook patron and Astraware’s Sudoku.
