Isn't it the same camera as the Ipad Touch? I believe so. Consenses is it not good for stills but OK for video. I haven't tried out the video on my Touch yet as it's nothing but rain, rain, rain, here in PNW. It won't replace my 3 yo Kodak 6.1 megapixals camera, but then a higher pixal camera would raise the cost. I do love the sharp clear retina resolution on the touch. Wish it would come to the iPad, but again, I am sure cost is an issue. Ain't no Android tablet that can compete with iPad on cost so far and that's certainly one very good reason that the iPad is so popular.
I would like to try out a Xoom but no local store carries here in our little town. Lots of folks though are sold on them.
