MacRumors reports that iOS 4.3 Beta 2 includes and image, under the sheets, of a few new iPad icons that we haven't seen before. The image is of the iPad homescreen with 3 new apps. Facetime, Camera, and even Photobooth are included in this firmware.
Now this doesn't mean that the iPad 2 will have a rear camera, but it definitely means that it will have a front. You will now be able to cross-Facetime with all the other iDevices including Macs. I don't think Apple would have let the iPad go without a camera for another year.
The article goes on to say that there were filters included in the firmware as well "Thermal Camera, Mirror, X-Ray, Kaleidoscope, Light Tunnel, Squeeze, Twirl and Stretch". These are presumed to be for Photobooth, which should be somewhat similar to what we see with the Mac app.
Well, we did it everyone, the iPad 2 is now officially getting a front facing camera!

N.O.V.A. 3 being developed with Unreal Engine 3
Gameloft has confirmed what we already knew down here in the Rumour Mine - it's busy working on four games utilising Epic Games's Unreal Engine 3. But the Paris-based publisher hasn't revealed what those games are.
Word has it that shooter sequel N.O.V.A. 3 is among the four titles built around the engine and will be out later this year.
It's not surprising that a third game in the series is in the works, since the first two instalments did phenomenally well both critically and commercially. However, switching to Unreal Engine 3 is an interesting move. N.O.V.A. 2 looked awfully good last December, so who knows what it'll look like this time around.
No announcement is planned for the game until late in the year, so sit tight.
I'm still waiting for the low end iPad to get like, sub $300. Everyone I've seen selling it so far is trying for $400, which is complete bullshit for a used iPad. That's the same price as a new one essentially.
