Default iPad 2 Crashing Since iOS 5 Installed

I don't know if anyone else has experience this problem but my iPad 2 is crashing when using Safari after about 20-50 seconds, the problem mainly seems to be when trying to post and it always happens when I am typing.

I installed iOS 5 yesterday, I have tried deleting the history and the cache but it still keeps on crashing.

And before anyone asks I am posting this on my Samsung NC10 netbook.

I tried a Google search before posting up on here, but not much came up other than beta software issues.

Thanks Jura, resetting the iPad appears to have done the trick.

When I installed iOS 5 on my iPhone 4 it cocked up nearly all the album artwork, when I can be bothered I'll re-sync it with the ITunes library on my PC.

CF, Have a read of this. Grab one or more of the crash logs and post / PM them and I'll have a peek and see if anything useful is displayed in them.

What other apps are running in the background? Have you tried killing off all other apps and just running Safari to see if the problem still happens.

Thanks Markus, PM on it's way.

The last crash only settings were open other than Safari.

As I've said on another thread I'm sure I've found the problem by running the Safari debug console - it looks like is the social media plugins causing the problem when posting a reply (and not a quick reply like this one). I'm getting 4 HTML and 2 JavaScript errors when posting a reply which then causes Safari to crash.

Not that I've complained about these plugins before...

Well I've had a guts full of trying to find a solution to my Safari crashing and bought Atomic Web Browser from the App Store and it's a revelation, fully featured web browser and no crashing either and only 69p.

Why couldn't Apple create a browser as good as the Atomic browser?
