    Just curious...I'm within range on my 2 year plan with Sprint to renew, and retentions is offering me a Centro for only $79.99, which is dirt-frigign'-cheap for that phone. It's got everything but wireless. The OS is stable as heck and there's a TON of free stuff for Palm...

    I've got Sprint's SERO (Sprint Employee Referral Offer) plan, which is 500 mins, unlimited web/data, picture mail, N&W, & M2M for $30, plus my 25% corp discount, and it took me a few tries to get that, so I'd rather not lose it. Cingular's call quality, bar for bar, is better, but a data plan with them is much more expensive.

    I've read great reviews on it everywhere, and the only thing out there that's anywhere NEAR comparable is the Pantech Duo by Cingular, which looks cool, but it's getting mixed reviews...mostly a really slow processor for things like the sliders and the fact that it feels cheap.

    Thoughts/ideas/suggestions for something cool I might be missing in the $100 range? I wish I could drop the money on a Tilt or PPC6800/Mogul, but heck.. I'm married I'm not a huge fan of red, but I really like that phone in red for some reason. I've toyed with it some and some people are saying the keyboard is small which is true, but I could type pretty quickly on it.
