Thanks. Yes, I saw it yesterday, but it is very expensive and used. Does not include box or charger. In addition, shipments from the UK are now much more expensive since Brexit.

I would like to find one for sale in Europe, it is strange that I do not find one in Europe, right? There are a lot of Europeans in this forum and it is the best forum for rare phones with alternative / outdated systems!

The Treo 500v is aesthetically almost identical, albeit with a wider body and screen. The big difference is that the 500v uses Windows Mobile 6.

Aesthetically, the Palm Centro seems more beautiful to me, since it is thinner (the 500v seems like an old BlackBerry to me). But the most important thing is that it uses Palm OS 5.4.9 (the latest public version of Palm OS installed on an official mobile). What really interests me is the operating system (although I love the aesthetics of the Palm Centro).

In addition, the pink version (and also the green version) are exclusive to the Sprint operator. The big advantage (regardless of whether someone likes color) is that it has twice the user-accessible storage of the other Palm Centro (the Sprint version is 128MB instead of 64MB).

I also read that there is a version of the Palm Centro with GSM unlocked (most Palm Centro are CDMA). This version is white with gray accents on the keyboard.

Anyway, it is a mobile that I want to have at home, so I would not use it with a SIM. For this reason, I do not need the GSM version (which is compatible with the Spanish networks). So the best version for me is the Sprint version (with 128MB) and hopefully in vibrant rose!
