It was only a matter of time before someone ruined the iPad’s simple elegance with an atrocious webcam.
By a company named Photofast, this iPad webcam is planned for launch later this year. With a 2MP still camera (not 200, despite what the picture may say), it promises 640×480 video streaming in messaging apps.
It doesn’t appear that the camera can fasten to the iPad itself, but instead sits on a nearby desk or table, connecting via a wire and the iPad’s dock connector.
Short of soldering a bulbous Logitech cam to the top of the iPad, it’s pretty much the least graceful webcam peripheral we could imagine. Well, I guess that some sort of duct tape solution would be pretty horrendous, too. [Pocket-Lint via Slashgear]
