blurry pictures/videos on my ipad2

I just got my iPad 2 (exactly 3 days old, 64GB Wifi+3G Version, white) and I am really really happy. But to get to the point: I know that the built in cameras are not the best ones out there, but all my pictures seems to be blurry and highly pixelated.

I am using the standard apps like Facetime and Camera. To be honest: the pics look awful, and it is not rated on the person in front of the cam x)

Altough the pictures taken with my iPhone 3GS have a better quality. Is my device broken? Is there a chance to calibrate the cameras? I don't use any cases except the smart cover from Apple, but I guess that would not have any influence on camera quality? Any help would be fine. Thanks.

btw: Used Firmware is 4.3.3 (could not select it below)

nice regards
