iPad Screen Scratched.

Last night I was wiping the screen of my iPad with the special cloth that came with my 24" Cinema display, and I noticed that there was a scratch on my iPad screen. Since I got the device I haven't taken a look at it super close because I've just been so excited to use it. If I've been looking at it it's been in on (which is extremely difficult to see the scratch).

I can't imagine in the few hours of use that I scratched the device. I mean the thing has been pampered and lightly touched. I have had an iPhone 3GS for 9 months that has the same glass and goes in and out of my pocket that is scratch free. How could I have scratched my iPad? I mean the glass is super durable and it looks like something sharp has dinged the screen (all of which I can a test to not happening). What should I do?

ipad, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

Two things you can do:

1: accept it as is and enjoy your iPad.

or:

2: make an appointment with an Apple Genius at your local store (or talk to Apple Support if you bought your iPad online from Apple) and see what they make of it.

You are mentally ill. Go see a psychologist. Really, this kind of obsession is dangerous to your health. It's just a piece of metal and not worthy of obsession and stress.

Sounds more like a crack to me. That was so on my iPod Touch.

I took a key to mine a week ago and straight up jabbed it on my screen and pressed down hard and nothing happened. I've only seen cracks occur on iPads, not scratches.
