First I am jazzed because it comes in RED!!!!!! And, of course, that is the one I bought.

At the Inman Connect this summer, I heard the term "communication device" being substituted for "smartphone." With good reason, our phones are becoming the way we communicate in everyway.

So here are the 10 Reasons Why I Love my new Centro:

10. It only cost $99

9. The Palm OS Operating system gives me a familiar interface, just like my Treos. Practically no learning curve!

8. I can open my lockboxes with it! Thank you Supra!

7. I can use it as a modem with my tablet computer. Thank you PDA-Net

6. I can take pictures and email them. (I know-no big deal, but still handy!)

5. I can send email

4. I can surf the web

3. I have my entire Outlook database available anywhere I go!

2. It is smaller, lighter and easier to take along than my old TREO 650

1. It makes me feel hip and cool!!!!!!
