My iPad has been going crazy since the iOS 5.0.1 update.

Question

Touch screen seems to be selecting things on its own and it types on its own.  Pages in iBook turn by themselves and the screen keeps flashing.  Sometimes, it won't let me move beyond a certain point on the screen.  Happens about once an hour.  Turning it off helps, but it usually starts again.  Any way to go back to ios 5.0?  Any help would be appreciated.

Downgrading the iOS is not supported. Have you tried closing all apps completely and doing a reset and seeing if that helps ?
To close all apps, from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
To reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
