Palm Centro isn’t superstitious… available Friday the 13th

PalmcentroverizonI thought that releasing a phone on Friday the 13th was a bad idea but apparently,  Verizon Wireless doesn’t. The Cobalt Blue Palm Centro will be available for online purchasing tomorrow, Friday the 13th. Initial pricing is comparable to the same handset at Sprint and AT&T. $99 with a rebate and two-year contract gets you a CDMA Centro with EV-DO support, making this a solid deal in my book. Regardless of what day it is.

Speaking of deals: you can nab the VZW E-Mail and Web for Smartphones plan at a cost of $29.99 a month. I remember paying $45 a month for a similar Verizon plan with my XV6700 and this compares niecly with other carrier data plans. Verizon indicates this is an "unlimited" data plan, but of course you’ll want to check the terms of service as they likely indicate a soft 5 GB monthly cap. Tethering the Centro is officially supported by Verizon, but that’s through a $30 monthly service add-on.
