Finally today, HTC revealed that it will bring out a North American version of its S740 slider. The S743 switches from the previously Europe-only HSPA 3G to a dual-band 850MHz/1,900MHz link suited to AT&T in the US and Rogers in Canada.This aside, the S743 is basically the same with the S740, hence it has that diamond shaped back cover and the weird, elongated case that hosts both an alphanumeric and a full QWERTY keyboard. HTC plans to ship the Windows Mobile 6.1 phone sometime in the first three months of the year as an unlocked, unsubsidized device. Pricing hasn’t been named but should be high without carrier discounts.
