I welcome any increase in effective screen resolution on the iPad, but I don't know if I'd buy a 7" model just to get a sharper screen. The smaller form factor would be better for reading books in bed, but that's a smaller part of what I use the iP…

An external video camera bolted onto this sleek device would look horrible. This device is perfect for a forward-facing camera. While I believe it to be possible Apple will have it in this initial release, I think it's probably a generation 2 fe…
