The next generation iPad may be getting a high definition front camera, a higher quality rear camera, and a slightly thicker body, according to an iLounge report.
A few next-gen iPad notes, ahead of the show. Both cameras are getting upgrades. Front goes HD, rear becomes iPhone 4/4S-like (bigger). Body of the next iPad is, as we previously reported, getting just a little thicker to accommodate new parts - little = 1mm give or take. Curve radiuses on the body will change only a little to accommodate the added thickness, not dramatically. Think iPad 2 Pro, not a redesign.
The front camera is said to greatly improve FaceTime calls between the Macs and the iPad. The rear camera is likely the same one as used for the iPhone 4S since the camera hole is very similar.
The iPad 3 is expected to launch around the same time the iPad 2 did last year and iLounge believes that the iPad 2 will stick around with a price point of $399.
