An official Palm online training guide shows the Palm Centro in a variety of colors, leading to speculation that Palm will release an unlocked version of the GSM Centro.
Palm released the Treo 680 in a variety of colors, so it's quite possible they will follow suit the Centro. This would allow owners to use the unlocked Palm Centro on any GSM network including T-Mobile here in the US.
The new colors as shown below include glacier white (with grey numeric keys), grey/black, ruby red and a navy blue variant.

Tero Kuittinen, a financial analyst for Avian, claims discussions with operator sources indicate Palm will release the Centro on both AT&T Wireless and T-Mobile. This would be the first Palm release on T-Mobile in years.
The carriers have warmed up to Palm due to the success of the Centro on Sprint. Sprint's three month exclusivity is expected to end later this month. Palm's CFO declined to discuss specific operator details, but reportedly "giggled" when asked about T-Mobile carrying the Centro.
No word on whether Verizon will pick up the Centro.
