The Register has an article posted today that speculates that the iPad may be outfitted with a camera in future versions. Their speculation is backed up by a patent application that Apple has submitted. The patent is for an image capturing device (that is, a camera) with a touch screen being used to adjust the settings on the camera. Furthermore, The Register links to a blog where the author shows some replacement parts for the iPad. If this turns out to be true, then this would remove one of the major shortcomings from the iPad. From the article:
They received a metal internal iPad frame with what appeared to be a “spot” for a camera, which, when tested with a standard camera unit taken from a Unibody MacBook, it slotted neatly into the gap.
