A google for "centrio" doesn't do much. Just a bunch of returns of people misspelling "centrino".

I'm guessing it's just one of those no-name-brand kinda things. You know, like a TV made by "JC Penny".

...if you think its a rebagged major brand, it is certainly not a sony.

I wouldn't mind picking one up as x-mass gift for the GF little 12 year old sister if it is half decent.

In that case I'm going to get one to test out. I'll keep it till x-mass if it look good & work fine, other wise i'll return it.

If it walks like a "BS copy", talks like a "BS copy" and quacks like a "BS copy"; then it probably is. Long story short, why would you wish this on a family member when the only thing you can say about it is that you want to know if others think it is a Sony.
Get real and give the kid a decent camera; not a knock-off. You don't have to be rich to afford a decent digital camera today.

The kid is a fashion/electronic freak; therefore a camera/MP3 player would be cool in her book.

I agree with you, but some people prefer quantity is over quality.

Yea it would be okay, if it works.

If it's for a 12 year old girl, I suspect she'd much rather have a cell phone with a camera and mp3 player rather than a knock off brand camera.

Has 8MB memory...doesn't say it can be upgraded. What can you do with an 8 MB MP3 player? That's like 3 songs!
