I'm having the same problem. Searched the web and found a guy who at least found a way for his problem.
Check out the Apple Support Communities, can't supply a link, but hope I'm okay pasting his post:

Hello everybody,

I spend several hours last night and finally get it back to work.

First what did not work:
I connected the iPad with iTunes an click restore. But when it asked I choose restore from last backup. Even before any app or data where restored, the contacts crashed again.

What works for me:
Disabled all apps and data from synching with iTunes
Click 'restore' in iTunes.
I the middle of this process the iPad (not iTunes) asked about the restore mode.
Choose option 'as new iPad'
Then I got a new blank installation without external apps or data. But with working contacts.
I set up my connection with exchange and other mail accounts.
Then I enabled all apps and data (photos, music, podcasts) one by one and synch.


Note: I am running a german version, so I dont know the exakt english names.

Hope that helps. Good luck.



I'm gonna try this later today.

Will.

Okee it works now.. WhoopWhoop XD

I restored my ipad, deleted all settings and apps, and started as a new Ipad. And everything works fine now.
Thank you..

Yeah, same here! I have a fully working, syncing iPad 2 now.
What a fantastic piece of engineering it is as well.
