During the event, they only referred to the cameras as "video" cameras. Also, I didn't see any hands-on photos or reports of photos being taken.

Can you use the iPad 2 as a still photo camera?
 
From the iPad 2 tech spec sheet


-Back camera: Video recording, HD (720p) up to 30 frames per second with audio; still camera with 5x digital zoom
-Front camera: Video recording, VGA up to 30 frames per second with audio; VGA-quality still camera
-Tap to control exposure for video or stills
-Photo and video geotagging over Wi-Fi
:D
 
I was also confused over the back camera but thanks to the above poster for confirming that the back camera does take photos :)
