here is the result
I went to the apple store in the snow on Saturday. Took close to an hour but I guess thats not apples fault.
Walked in an went up to the first associate, nice kid. Told him I need to return the interface and the problem with the ipad. He said he will take a look and said he will re-boot the ipad and if its a software issue, it should fix it. Takes 2 minutes, and now it works fine. I had to ask how I have their best selling product and in order to fix a major issue, I have to crash it to get it to work. He said thats just the way it is and he showed my how to do it. Oh well, seems lame to me but it works now.

You mean you didn't reboot the iPad before you drove into the store?

Hmm re-boot? Silly me.
I first checked the instructions, oops they're are none!
Then I went to apple support online, oops it didnt tell me how to do that.
Then I googled my issue, many had same issue with no resolution
Then I spent an hour on Apple support, they never suggested doing that and went dwon 5 different paths to resolve the issue. The last path led me to the Apple store.
It must be one of those ease of use things that I should have figured out on my own? I guess everyone knows you hold down the power button and the menu key(whatever its called) and it will crash the ipad?
Im just not high tech.

Do it on Microsoft all the time. You never turn it off?
Apps on the iPad crash all the time, droid also. I reboot my devices quite a bit

A lot of these mobile devices like a reboot now and then. They don't always do a good job of shutting everything off.

I thought all you had to do to reboot the iPad was hold to power switch?

that turns it off.
He held the power switch and the button on the front for about 10 seconds. The screen goes blank and you get the apple logo.

See, even when you drink the Kool-aid they don't tell you the hidden secrets.
