Palm Centro 2 ad is indeed fake

That ad floating around today showing what looks like a Palm Centro 2 has been proven to be a fake ad a marketing student whipped up for class.  Thanks to reader cr0ft for finding this.

UPDATE: cr0ft found this on engadget so here’s the link love.

    As it departs into the mists of hoaxdom, that verse from the classic Beach Boys song goes through my head: “Wouldn’t it be nice?”

  • Thanks for the credit but I can’t really take it, just happened to spot the news a bit quicker than you guys… probably due to the fact that I’m on European time. Credit should more deservedly go to Engagdet, should have linked to their story instead of the class project. Sorry bout that.

  • Next time do research for yourself instead of stealing stuff from other blogs. You have further demonstrated that anybody can rip off articles from other places and if you want to remain a reputable technology blog, you should consider having more unique articles.
