App Store corrupted interface - irreversible

This is the first time I've encountered a software bug that cannot be fixed by restart. Apple's signature quality seems all on the hardware front but software is getting sloppy.

I am using a 3rd gen iPad and running iOS6 with the new App Store.

Whenever you tap on an app a small window pops up and you have "details, ratings related"

When I tap on an app under the "purchase" page, that entire bar is transparent and missing.

I have attached a screen below (note, no resetting of the ipad or restarting worked at all)
