I was running some stylus test a week or so back and I noticed that, the alignment of where I touch the screen shifts depending on where I touch it in relation to the edges.
So I have like a bowl effect on my alignment.
If I am drawing a vertical line in the center of the screen it is relatively close to center , but if i shift it to the left edge the closer i draw a line to the left bezel, the further left it shifts. I have the same effect on all 4 directions.

it's not too bad as long as I don't get too close to the edges, but this seriously effects my usable screen real estate, and I really hope it is not something apple intended.
I have tried different apps, and different styluses, as well as my finger.

the mount of shifting can run 1-4mm off center, depending on how close to the edge of the screen I draw a line.

Is this normal? or Do I need to back it up, and have someone at the apple store look at it?

I realize these things aren't as precise as a wacom, but If this is normal, It could seriously effect usage in drawing.

I have an ipad 3, 4g no longer jailbroken running 6.0.
