AT&T will get the Centro next month and then a version of the Treo 800w late this year. At least, that's my best guess based upon what I've seen (leaked AT&T Centro shots and Vodafone roadmap).

If you feel comfortable with the keyboard, the Centro is a viable upgrade. It's the familiar Palm OS, comes with the same software bundle found in the Treo 755p and the form factor is nice. The build quality isn't on par with high end Treos (ie. Treo 755p,Treo 750), but that's also reflected in the price. While a lot has been said about the keyboard, it's really not so bad. In many ways, it has a very nice feel to it. It all depends on your comfort level. I'd recommend visiting a local Sprint dealer and test driving the keyboard. AT&T is rumored to release next month -- but those of course are rumors.

Here are some leaked photos of the AT&T Centro.
