Sprint has a new television commercial for the Palm Centro that targets a younger demographic. Less talk of business and a greater focus on using a smartphone to manage your life.

Personally, I enjoyed the "crazy" guy from the first commercial, but this ad speaks more to the core demographic that Sprint is trying to reach with the Centro. It's also a good opportunity to display the various colors available on Sprint.

Here's our first look at the Palm Centro smartphone.

The Palm Centro is currently scheduled for a mid-October release at $99.99 (after a 2-year contract with a $25 data plan). The first thing I immediately noticed was the size. As you'll see in the video first look, when comparing to the Treo 700, Moto Q, Moto Q 9h and iPhone, the small size of the Palm Centro really impresses. There is nothing new with regards to software, but Palm has done a great job with the software bundle on the Centro. Palm has included GoogleMaps, Docs To Go for Office documents, a full version of PocketTunes, an integrated IM application and Sodoku. This is virtually the same software bundle you'd find on the higher priced Treo 755p.

Overall, it's a nice device and a step in the right direction for Palm. Check back for a full review.
