So ever since I've gotten my smart cover for my iPad 2 I've noticed it does something very strange every so often. The screen orientation will be stuck/locked. The settings are NOT set up though to have it lock in any way unless I do so manually.

The odd thing is my fix for the issue: I've noticed that if I slap the smart cover (relatively gently of course) against either the front OR the back of the iPad, it will unlock the orientation and move between the two again.

Anyone seen anything like this? I want to at least verify it with someone before I wait at the Apple store to try and get it replaced.
