All II'm saying is that it's ONE MILLIMETER. Hardly an imperfection. And while I didn't grow up poor myself, my parents did, and I assure you that had they been blessed with such a luxury given how they had to make do as it was, ONE MILLIMETER wouldn't have remotely registered as a concern. So your knowledge of poor is clearly non-existent.
It goes into the device slightly. I think that this is a potentially valid concern, unless it's simply a normal manufacturing tolerance, in which case I am fine with. Would you not agree? (Dumb question, apparently not).
This isn't a gift horse I'm looking in the mouth, either. Yes, it's a luxury. But there's a reason I dished out money that luxury, and there are certain things I expect from the product, such as not to have loose or "sunken" buttons/switches.
I think that we're a little past the "iPad is a luxury" stage at this point in Apple's lifespan, don't you? In comparison to some countries, everythign we own is a luxury, so what is your standard? And yet, we will take food back if it's cold, etc. so on and so forth. So, it's not really fair to place some sort of arbitrary standard on me and judge me by it. I don't even know why people are saying things like this. I asked a simple question, and I just want to make sure my product is functioning correctly.
Is that so hard to understand?
"Hey kid, that is a luxury (that you just paid a LOT of money for). Don't question anything that you think might be wrong with it." -- Sorry, but I believe that as a consumer, I am allowed to voice my concerns. I have not contacted apple, I am not complaining -- I am simply trying to establish a control here. What's the norm? Is that so wrong?
My tone of voice in my OP was not angry, upset, or even agitated! I am simply trying to find out what's normal as it relates to other peoples' devices. (Namely, the iPad3).
And you think that because I have less money, that I should be less apt to complain? That makes absolutely no sense at all! I want to make sure that my hard-earned and saved cash is getting me a good product, and I don't want to settle for less.
It's nice that all of you feel that I shouldn't even be talking to other people here on the forum about their devices -- that's very elitist of you. Congrats for being absolute douchebags. I have a low post count, and many of you have reminded me why I avoided these forums so much in the first place.
And, thanks to those who actually provided me with valuable responses. It sounds like some are like that and some are not, and it's probably not a big deal either way.

That's why I used quotes the second time I used it. Can we avoid semantics here? This is utterly ridiculous. Like another user said, it's relative. I didn't grow up poor, and I AM questioning certain aspects of my very expensive device. I don't look at it as a gift, but as something that I worked hard to save up for. I wasn't "blessed" with it. It's not like someone donated it to me and I'm nitpicking it.
