Your photos, videos, and music

Do you have a wallet bulging with photos of friends, family, pets, and your most recent vacation?

Are you tired of carrying both your MP3 player and your phone?

Your Palm® Centro™ smart device solves both problems. You can keep your favorite photos right on your Centro—videos, too. And there’s no need to carry an expensive MP3 player; you can play music on your Centro. Simply transfer songs onto your Centro or an expansion card and then listen through your headphones (cards and headphones sold separately).

Benefits

•Never be far from your favorite people, places, and songs

•Organize your photos, videos, and songs

•No separate photo viewer, MP3, or CD player required
