The thread I get refers to HTC Diamond and HTC Pro launch dates, nothing about any new Centro colors. Did I hit the wrong page?

Darn, I missed this thread yesterday and just now read about the two new colors via my Google Alerts. And put up a quick blog post.

Is it just me or doesn't the Pink Centro look to be a rose color? I guess the "Rose" Centro will be some other variation of pink. I gotta see what the "Green" color is going to look like. I wonder if it'll be like those bright green keys on the AT&T white Centro's keyboard? Or a darker, flatter shade of green. Should be interesting.

I believe the rose will be between the red and pink Centro. As for the green, I am guessing it will look like the green LG Rumor phone. Both colors will be available in store and online in late October.

Thanks for the pics. The green looks like "WASABI".

I like them both, but probably not enough to switch out my pink.

I like both the pink and the rose Centros but I'll stick with my black one because it looks more professional. The colored ones look like toys. I wish the dark blue one would come to Sprint-that one I would seriously consider switching to.

A hunter green would rock. Dark green all the way.

Why bother making a rose colored one.. there's already a pink and red. Seems like a bit overkill to me. They should venture into the rest of the color-wheel real estate. Yellow would be a favorite of mine. I do love that green tho. But I agree that I'm sticking with the black one for the professional appearance.

I agree on the Black color, it always looks professional and conservative. The Blue Centro for Verizon looks great, but the electrive blue for AT&T is a bit loud.

What's up with Verizon still only offering one color?

Be glad that Verizon still offers ANY Garnet-based device in this day and age. In fact, I'd even go out on a limb and say that you should be glad they are offering ANY products from Palm, Inc. at all!

The 700w & 700p debacles in 2006/2007 really took a lot of the romance out of the relationship between Palm & Verizon IMO.

That green color reminds me of the family truckster in the movie "Vacation." Wow, Palm finally came out with Metallic Pea, I know we have all been waiting for it.

Is it me or is there no point to the rose one since its identical to pink except not as bright?

I like the rose but I do agree that we don't need two pinks. It would be nice if the centro had interchangable cases like nokia.

The rose looks like a darker pink. I actually like it better, but still not enough to switch (unless it was free ).

Sorry... but I don't want to look like Barbie! Why can't they give us a professional selection? The 755 colors rock!
