If for some wierd reason, you wanted a Touch Pro without its touchscreen feature, you might want to take a gander at HTC’s latest S740 model. The S740 sticks close to the Touch Diamond’s glossy design, right down to its sleek front facade and the diamond pattern on its back. All the specs are identical exception for the omission of a touchscreen which is compensated with the usual 12-key numeric keypad. The touchless 2.4-inch display, reduced from the 2.8-inch VGA screen that everybody loves on the Touch Diamond, is satisfied with QVGA resolution, and other goodies like HSDPA support, aGPS, Bluetooth, microSD support, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, FM radio, and a slide-out QWERTY keypad seems included along with Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard.

The HTC S740 will be available starting this month in Europe at an undisclosed price.
