Don't worry, this isn't the Centro 2

Okay, so maybe Palm hit its head on the corner of a goalpost in a charity hockey tournament recently (stupid ego -- no helmet) and hasn't been the same since. Maybe they've lost their ever-loving minds, gone back to 2006, and resurrected the original Centro ID with a build of webOS so janky that it looks like a knockoff of webOS. We prefer a couple more reasonable theories: someone's hard at work on a webOS skin for Palm OS (bless their heart) or Palm had used a Centro for early mockups / prototyping on webOS and the shots of that effort are just now starting to leak out. Either way, dude pressing on the screen in the middle picture: nice stylus.

Doesn't look terrible...

It sure would be awesome if they offer a rom update to get WebOS going on Centro's. And yeah, I think it looks very usable.

The calculator looks JUST like the Palm OS one, though, so it could very well be a skin. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
