Non-News Regarding iPad 2 at The Daily Launch

Apparently, a Reuters reporter is “confirming” that iPad 2 (the above picture is of the current iPad) will have a front-facing camera according to SlashGear, as they saw a “working model” with “with a front-facing camera” at an event launching The Daily, Apple iOS’s “newspaper” on Wednesday. Skeptics, however, are wondering if this was even true, as there are no photos nor was there any additional news regarding other improvements on the device (not even the rumoured USB and SD slots). SlashGear thinks that something might have “slipped” as media are beginning to report on Android’s new Honeycomb. Here at DelectablyChic!, we think Apple just wants to have POSITIVE news. Not only has Steve Jobs taken time off due to health concerns, Apple has been facing some criticism as of late regarding the enforcement of their rule that all transactions must go through their app store. Many developers are not pleased with the rule likely because Apple takes a cut of anything that is specifically developed for them.
