Comments on: HTC Brings Sexy Back: Introducing the S740 http://www.geardiary.com/2008/08/26/htc-brings-sexy-back-introducing-the-s740/ Everyone can understand technology; sometimes it just takes a little translating.

So this 740 beeing narrower should fell just as good. The edges shouldn’t be a problem – it looks pretty much like the Touch Diamond, and this one feels quite nice in the hand (or pocket).

I think it loses something in the translation (from WinMo Pro) and there are too many app compatability concerns. If I want a WinMo device I'm more inclined to stick with a WinMo Pro device like the TouchPro or the Diamond, etc. But for those that like WinMo Standard and aren't annoyed with its limitations, and are on a European carrier (for now) this might be an ideal device!

Can I be too sexy for my phone?? this thing looks awesome. I'd love to give this a shot; but with 3G on it targeted to Europe/Asia, I wonder how great it would be here.

And while I think it looks great (even if it is a fingerprint magnet), I do have to wonder about how it would feel in hand (its caressability, if you will) due to the sharp edges. Good point reidme.

Apple Agrees too as it seems everything's going all curvy. There's ALOT to be said for device ergonomics. reidme: I agree! Apple Agrees too as it seems everything’s going all curvy.

I'm also not a big fan of these slide out keyboards. In practice they seem fine for casual users (one or two emails per day) -- but if you do heavier texting and/or emailing they're a pita to use (imho).
