The Mission Repair blog has posted photos of what looks to be the back case of the next-gen iPad. The new case sports a second dock port hole, which could be for either docking in landscape mode or a SD card slot. Mission Repair has had a shaky history with calling Apple equipment.

Try a 11.6" screen. Try a carbon-fiber enclosure to make it thinner and lighter....

So yes, there will probably be a camera in version 2 of the iPad, but will it be this holiday season - probably not. Apple can't keep up with demand for the current model. Only recently has the...
