BGR's leaked Vodafone roadmap is the gift that just keeps on giving. The latest: Palm Wanda. It takes some major design cues from the PalmOS Centro - the tiny keyboard and the thin (width-wise) shape. But switch that baby over to Windows Mobile 6.1 standard and throw in 3G and you have Wanda. The radio is tri-band EDGE/HSDPA so it's probably going to follow the 500v's Europe-only tack to start. We truly hope that's just to start, because this little sucker looks cute as a button and our pockets are begging for it.

Specs:

  • Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA
  • Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard
  • 320x240 screen
  • 2mp camera
  • GPS
  • 1200mAh battery

It's due in September '08. Thanks to rener for the tip! Our money is on this getting the “Centro” branding.

It seems thinner than the Centro?
It sure does - *and* they managed to fit a 1200 mAh battery in there too. Dropping the touchscreen does wonders!
Sounds like a great buy. I can't wait.
