Does your brand new iPad 2 have any factory defects?

mine came with a small "scratch" type thing between the screen and the glass.
I will post a picture soon, but I truly feel bad exchanging it for such a small thing thing since people can barely find them anywhere.
That being said, it is a brand new item and as with most Apple products, I tend to see less of these defects.

Mine has a noticeable amount of light leaking from the edge of the screen. It's in the upper left corner in portrait view.
It's easy to see when there is a dark background or when watching a movie and the black bars are at the edge of the screens.
I plan to exchange in about a month when there are more available or when I feel like driving the 1.5 hrs to an Apple Store.

My screen is really dim compared to my 1st gen. I need to take it into the Apple Store and compare.
Other than that, only a super-minor one. The (very thin) aluminum by the cable socket is warped, but it's not interfering with use.

Mine's perfect. I had to settle for a different color than what I had planned to get, and I decided to go with the 3G model instead of WiFI only because that's what they had on hand, but the machine is perfect.

I just did so, and while it was slightly dimmer than the demo models, it was nothing worth returning it over.
Seems like a cheap way to keep the battery life spec consistent.

I don't have a MacBook, but the iPad has a "white on black" setting which can darken things up at the expense of looking all freaky.
It's one of the few things you can engage with a home button triple-click.

mine has a slight case of light leakage as well but then its only visible when you turn the brightness up to 100%. I reckon I will hardly ever do that. I just its not that big of a deal.

Defects are all exchangeable according to Apple, as long as the problems was not caused by you or other physical damages incurred by you.
