Web cameras are some of the oddest pieces of technology. In some cases, they can really help a lot if you tend to be on voice conferences a lot –whether for business or personal. On the other hand, if you are the type who does not bother with the device, it is nothing more than a novelty.
Considering that the iPad is meant for enabling easier access to digital information and internet access, it makes perfect sense for the device to have a camera. Though the big fact is, the initial spec sheet of the iPad says nothing about a camera.
Some images of the iPad are showing that Apple is very much capable of making really nice surprises. The folks at Engadget have gathered visual evidence that the device might just have a camera module, though it is also possible that it has been scrapped on the iPad but may appear on a later incarnation of the device. Anyway, the iPad’s known specs are already impressive, with or without the cam.
The device itself can work as a net book, allowing instant access to the internet. Users can also use the iPad to play games as the device has shown it can handle 3D games easily. It also serves an EBook reader –making it Kindle’s biggest threat.
The tablet itself is already capable of running applications for the iPhone and the iPod Touch, giving it a vast library of apps to download and use according to the user’s needs. Still, the device has its limitations. At the moment, the iPad is not capable of multi tasking and it currently does not support Flash (and it might not ever support Flash).
