Leaked more than a month ago, along with the allegedly HTC Omega, the HTC Eternity has just been pictured confirming its existence.

HTC Bresson, Omega and Eternity are among the first upcoming Windows Phone 7 devices to feature 1.5GHz processors and are expected to be announced in Q3 2011.

Thanks to the guys over at HTCInside, we now know how the Eternity looks like, as well as the complete specs sheet.

In addition to the amazing 4.7-inch WVGA Super LCD display, the HTC Eternity comes with Windows Phone 7 Mango on board and 16GB of internal memory.

Furthermore, smartphone boasts an 8-megapixel camera with autofocus, LED flash and 720p video recording capabilities, as well as a secondary 1.3-megapixel camera for video calls.

In this regard, it is worth mentioning that Windows Phone 7 devices do not support front-facing cameras because of some software limitations, but once the Mango update hits the market, the capability will be enabled.

HTC Eternity is supposed to be powered by a single-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz, which will make it one of the most powerful WP7 devices available on the market along with the HTC Omega.

Although Microsoft's requirements only asks manufacturers to include processors clocked at 800 MHz or 1GHz, it appears that the upcoming WP7 updates require a bit of a power boost when it comes to CPU.

It is possible that Microsoft will update the requirements for Windows Phone before these devices become available on the market.

Other interesting features of the HTC Eternity include DLNA function, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and integrated GPS.

If the rumors are true, HTC Eternity should be announced next month and the first orders should start shipping in autumn.

No further details about the WP7 smartphone's price have been disclosed nor which carriers are likely to pick this one.
