Front Camera Freezing Up With FaceTime In iPad 2

According Apple Discussions forum, many iPad 2 users are having issues with the built in FaceTime app. Namely, upon loading the application, the image from the front facing camera sometimes freezes – making a FaceTime call impossible.

Currently, we’re not exactly sure how many people are suffering from this problem. Most likely, the issue will be addressed in a future version of the iOS – possibly iOS 4.3.1, which is rumored to be released in the next few weeks.
Here’s what one user had to say about the issue:

FaceTime was frozen on iPad 2. It had the last video capture as the main screen of Facetime. Could not see receiving video. Resolution: Reset to factoring settings. Apple – possible app glitch. [sic]

And, from another user:

If you see just a still photo it means your FaceTime is stuck and you have to restart your iPad. Has anyone else experienced this? I know someone has this problem, because BOTH my wife and my iPads do this frequently. Is this a bug that can be fixed so it doesn’t do it anymore?
