iPad 2 Glitches and Manufactures Mistakes

Finicky FaceTime
 Apple's support forums are seeing a growing number of complaints saying FaceTime video chat freezes after being used for the first time.
The problem is solved by restarting the iPad.
 
Backlight Bleeding
More problematic than glitchy FaceTime software are the reports of iPad 2 backlight leakage. Some iPad owners, perhaps most famously Cult of Mac's David Martin, hav e noticed uneven patches of light showing up around the edges of the tablet's display.
Martin took his original model in to be replaced and an Apple Genius noted that the replacement also suffered from the same problem. Sounds like a manufacturing problem that will need to be resolved in the future.
 
Camera Issues
Cult of Mac heard reports of wonky colors popping up in a few frames of video. Writer Brian Sweet said he noticed the problem in his iPad 2 since launch day. He isn't sure if the problem is hardware or software-related.
Sweet took a two and a half minute video driving through a car wash and noticed the issue popped up three times.
