When I start my ipad, it always shows flickering colour lines in the middle. After 5 minutes or so, when I continu to use it flat on a table, it disappears. What is wrong? Pls advise what to do. Tx al lot! Leen

It's plainly defective or damaged. Likely a problem with the LCD connectors. After connections get warm there is a better connection and it starts to work.

This will likely get worse over time so I would recommend taking it in for replacement if you are covered by the 1 year warranty.

I don't know if this counts but when I got my iPod Touch, it had that but they replaced it after they inspected it. so try going to store.
