We can’t be certain what Palm’s playing at with this teaser brochure on its website: either it’s talking about the launch of a European marketing campaign for the Centro on September 12th, or Palm’s managed to pull a fast one and is ready to launch the Centro (or another unseen phone) in the next two weeks. We’re guessing the former, but at least this promotion tells us something about this phone, Centro or not: the first people to get their hands on one will be European. Check out the website, and if you live in The Netherlands, the UK, Germany, or Italy, enter your details to potentially win not one, but five Palm smartphones.

Boxing the Optimus Maximus


As opposed to unboxing, that is. Yeah, that’s right: in their seemingly endless mission to document every bit of minutiae related to the Optimus Maximus OLED Keyboard, the Optimus Project guys have taken pictures of the box that will contain the keyboard. Some key points of the box:

  • Made of brown cardboard, with a glossy white exterior.
  • Features foam padding.
  • Has two layers of foam.
  • Includes cut outs to keep the power supply, cable, and keyboard seated.
  • Comes with handy white handle.
  • Yes, we’re over analyzing this to make a point.

C’mon Optimus Project, get this out the door already.
