Next iPad To Have 7-inch Version, With Two Cameras
![Next iPad To Have 7-inch Version, With Two Cameras [Analyst Claims That The Second iPad Will Come In Smaller, Galaxy Tab Size]](http://tftscdn3.nexus404.com/Blog/thumbnailimages/alt/iPad-And-iPad-NanoTFTSThumb220153.jpg)
Looking for a little iPad news on your Monday afternoon? Analyst Ashok Kumar of firm Rodman & Renshaw says that Apple is current developing a new, second iPad. Not really a shocker, but he says that the iPad will come in a seven-inch model as well as coming with two cameras.
Presumably, one camera would be rear-facing, like a traditional “main” camera on a mobile phone, while another would be forward facing, for FaceTime chats and things. The camera on the iPhone is one (if not the) best you’ll find on a mobile phone. You’ve got to hope that the one on the iPad will just as good (if you believe in this rumor).
The 7-inch rumor is interesting. Obviously, it’s the same size as the Galaxy Tab. Comments made earlier this year from both Dell (who makes the five-inch Dell Streak) and Samsung say that they plan to offer five-, seven- and ten-inch tablets in the future. French MP3 maker Archos just introduced some Android tablets in those sizes, coming this fall.
And obviously, the current iPad is 10-inches. Apple usually marches to the beat of their own drum, but if these smaller tablet become popular, it isn’t impossible to see Apple swooping in and ‘copying’ the size. Remember that the first iPods were big, hard drive-based and expensive. Maybe they’ll even call the 7-inch iPad the “iPad Nano” (yeah, I doubt it too, but you get my point).
It isn’t hard to imagine a world where Apple, Samsung, Dell, Archos and others all offer tablets in a few different sizes. In this “new” tablet world (where unless you work in a hospital, tablet aren’t running a desktop operating system), it seems like five- to ten-inches is the comfortable spectrum of screen real estate and portability.

I personally would like a 7 inch Ipad. I think the Ipad is slightly too big and think the Ipod touch is too small. I think a half way point is a good idea. Especially if it costs less.
But, in other side, the big screen ipad help me enjoy my videos on ipad. I am sticking with my iPad with so many vidoes. When I back home, I would watching all kinds of videos with my boyfriend. I think others will do the same once they try it and realize it is the perfect personal computer :-)
So, I prefer the big screen ipad. By the way, To watch all kinds of videos and movies on ipad, we should thanks be to God, ahaa, just a joke. we should thanks to iFunia. this third party supplies the best ipad video converter so that we can save all kinds of vidoes on ipad.
