Centro Sighting?

We’ve all seen Treos popping up on television shows and movies. It’s gotten lately where I see a Treo on 3 out of 7 shows now. I always enjoy spotting one too! And now that I’ve used a BlackBerry device in the Round Robin, I’ve been seeing a lot more of those devices on tv too. And I see an iPhone on every episode of Moonlight. The main character, a good guy vampire uses one all the time. So does the female lead character and she uses a nice looking rubber, black case on hers. See below. McGee on NCIS uses an iPhone too.

Anyway, I was watching Prison Break this last Monday night and a female character answered her ringing cell phone. It sure does resemble a red Centro. I really thought it was one for sure. I pulled up the show online and found the part where the girl was using her phone and took some screenshots. Now I’m not too sure what phone it is but I still suspect that the producers were trying to use a Centro lookalike. The shape of the phone and the color is right. Plus it has the silver edging all around it. But when it shows the screen for a second, you can see that there’s no keyboard. And when the back of the phone is shown, I don’t see the silver area where the camera should be.

I looked around online at all the major carriers and didn’t see any phone that looks at all like this candybar phone other than the Centro. If anyone knows what this phone is, I’d love to know.
