I have a wifi only model on 5.01 and am experiencing the same behavior. I notice on my iPhone 4, which has GPS, the indicator only turns on briefly. I'm assuming the constant illumination on the iPad 2 is a bug. I'm curious if you have a wifi only model? These units don't have a GPS antenna so the battery drain is probably much less than it would be if it were constantly poling the GPS unit for location data. Still, it's annoying and i've turned it off for now.
