> I think they'll omit cameras on such a device for this reason

How would they track objects in 3D without a camera? Accelerometers are not accurate enough to to overlay-type augmentation they demoed. Unless you mean that the user won't be able to record pictures/videos so they won't call it a camera.

Apple seems like the kind of company that would bother including cameras and then be able to stand behind a decision to lock users out of using them.

well then that wouldn't save any space, would it?

I mean that they would disallow saving photos/videos for privacy reasons, and could stand behind their hardware being secure enough that people don't have to worry if they're still being secretly filmed by hacked iRis's or whatever.
