Photokina report
HTC announced the introduction of the HTC S740 cell phone, a slim, compact, and stylish smartphone that provides the perfect combination of a traditional 12-key phone design with HTCs signature sliding QWERTY keyboard for optimal messaging. The S740 follows the sleek design of HTCs hit consumer handset, the HTC Touch Diamond. This slim smartphone features a matt black facetted back, a 2.4 inch QVGA display and slide-out QWERTY keyboard. From the design of its 12-key keypad (ideal for super fast one hand messaging) and full QWERTY keyboard (perfect for those who prefer a two handed messaging experience) both input capabilities ensure efficient and accurate typing, as well as support for POP3, IMAP and Exchange push email. Instant messaging (IM) and SMS can also be accessed through the familiar 12-key interface on the front of the cell phone.
