iPad 2 FaceTime App Leaked [VIDEO]

After some poking around on the beta version of the iOS 4.3 software development kit, the folks at iPadevice managed to extract the FaceTime app for the iPad 2, and installed it on a first generation iPad. The app is very similar to the iPhone version, but the extra real estate offered by the iPad clearly allowed Apple engineers to offer a FaceTime experience much closer to the Mac version of the app.

Like with every other versions of FaceTime, the interface is extremely simple. The menu bar located at the bottom of the iPhone app has been redesigned, and the control buttons, such as ‘mute’, ‘end call’ and ‘switch camera’, are now grouped inside a window located near the bottom of the iPad screen.

Note that since the app is running on a first-gen iPad, the preview feature does not work, but things should go back to normal once the app runs on actual iPad 2 hardware.

The iPad 2 is expected to come with both front and back cameras. Amongst other things, the device is also expected to be thinner, and will sport a dual-core CPU, a better – but same resolution – display, and a larger speaker.
