Random unexpected touches

Hey all...

I'm getting random unexpected touches detected by my iPad. I'll just turn it on and watch it press buttons as if it's being remotely controlled. I have tried restarting, hard resarting, and restoring...nothing has helped.

Has anyone else had this problem or can suggest something new?

Thanks!

Macbook, Nay

There are a number of posts concerning this or similar issues. They all seem to end with a necessary replacement of the iPad, unfortunately. You could try a hard reboot first. Press and hold down the Home button and the side Sleep button at the same time until you see the Apple logo (about 8 seconds or so). Then let go and machine will automatically reboot. If problem persists, then get in touch with Apple.
