Lines and static across iPhone5 keyboard

I am seeing static and lines across my keyboard when using my iPhone5...most frequently when it appears in the AppStore app. I'd like to know if this is a software or hardware issue. I've seen severa reports of this on boards across the internet: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1452197


Any answers on this yet?

iPhone 5, iOS 6

I had the same issue and took my iPhone to an Apple store. They reloaded the OS and I was good for a couple of days, but the lines came back again. I called Apple technical support again and they told me to perform a reset by holding the power and home button until I see the Apple sign. After doing so, I haven't seen the static lines yet. Will report if I do...
