So, i've had my iPad 2 for less than a week, but am starting to encounter several issues that have become annoying.

1) Backlight leakage - Now, this is not a major issue, but it's happening. I'm sure it'll go away with time, but there's no doubting that this is a problem.

2) Very poor movie quality - Not of the camera kind, instead of movies downloaded through iTunes. They are playing at terrible quality on the iPad 2 and look very overexposed, or at least compared to the same movie running on a MacBook Air or iPad 1.

3) Intermittent WiFi problems - I'm experiencing annoying WiFi loosing connection from sleep/wake and it seems to never remember my password.

Luckily i'm not experiencing any dead pixels, which I did with my iPad 1.

I'm thinking of taking it to the Apple store. There's a possibility this is really defective and they only have 64GB 3G Black models in stock, hint hint.

However, I don't like swapping out hardware. If there's any clear fixes, can you point them to me. Otherwise, i've got a Genius Bar appointment booked for tomorrow.
