I think that the Centro is better in a woman´s hands. My fingers are thin and little, still I sometimes have problems typing. Had it been a tad wider it would have been great. Still it is great for 1 handed typing, specially on the street!

On the other hand with my eyesight fading I´d love bigger icons on the keys. I had a 680 for three months and it´s too big for a woman´s pockets. It fits, but not without problems. The Centro slides out and in with no problems and it´s unobtrusive enough... Not very popular here so most people don´t think it´s a smartphone!

My daughter has a centro she hates it I cant understand it. Her soon to be husband has my old 750 She wants to have it also. As opposed to the centro.

Because she doesn't like Palm OS jfa :/

No she doesnt like the centro form factor. She is used to dumbphones in the past. She wanted a palm pda a while back and I bought her a zire 22. If she wants a wi9ndows sphone maybe I'll buy her a pro if she wants it. She's getting married the end of August.

Surprised she doesn't like the Centro but does like the 750, not much difference apart from the 750 being bigger

Yes Thats what I thought. I kinda liked the centro and its size and format but I like my pro a lot better. I like wm 6.1 and I like the looks I have seen of 6.5. I am ready for it to be here. I saw some video of the HTC hero with android 1.5 or a cooked 2.0 and it looked pretty nice as well with the cards and so forth.
