Not to be outdone by its nameless cousin with a set of four capacitive buttons, another HTC slate has made its way into spy shots – the one without the buttons we uncovered a couple of weeks ago that many guessed could be a placeholder device inside of the HTC Sync application. Such wasn’t the case: this device is as real as the HTC DROID Incredible it’s setting next to.

It’s another hefty one in terms of screen size. It lacks a front-facing camera, but has a DROID-ish-looking camera on the back. Its battery door also resembles that of the original DROID Incredible. We’ve almost completely written off the Incredible HD as we figured that’s what the Thunderbolt was, but is it safe to say that the Incredible HD was something totally different all along?
