Palm OS Treos that work with AT&T - Treo Forum

Am I correct that the only Palm OS Treos that will work with Cingular AT&T are the 680 & Centro?

Yes. Well and the 650, but you already have that.

Well that stinks. Any thoughts as to which is better of two?

The Centro is obviously newer and comes a bit better loaded with 3rd party apps than the 680. Furthermore, it now allows for my location via Google Maps. But the form factor is definitely a deciding factor either way for many people. The Centro is a small phone and the keys are very close together, although many say they got used to it without problem. I have enough problems trying to type on my 755p.

You're correct in your assumptions, for now the Centro and the 680 are the only ATT Palm OS phones available. The form factors are much different, imo, the 680 being much closer to the 650 you're now using, whereas the Centro has the smaller screen and keyboard. So if you're looking to upgrade/update your phone, you'll need either decide which of the two is better suited for your use OR wait for the new Linux OS GSM phones to be released a year from now, at best.
