Re: using camera on ipad to scan envelopes, etc?
Hello, Yes, but I said that the iPad, meaning the original iPad doesn't have a camera. However, I'm interested in how well it works. So far, I have not really had any success with my iPhone 4S.

Re: using camera on ipad to scan envelopes, etc?
Right, I guess it was Dave who said the iPad 2 didn’t have a back facing camera. I still haven’t tried scanning anything.
