New iPad inconsistent touch screen response?

Question

Hello all:
The touch screen seems to behave differently in some apps: The Paris RATP Metro
for instance has a map you can point to a metro stop and its picked up and
entered into another tab to find a route or schedule.
In this app and a few others, you can touch a stop again and again and nothing
happens. This is despit wetting the finger tip, pressing harder, moving the
fingertip areound, etc.
After many tires it finally works,
In the majority of apps it never does this.
Anyone else seen this behavior? If yes, what apps did it and is there a fix?
I am trying to see if the app, the iPad design or a bad touch screen.
Kind Regards,
Jon

Have you tried any basic troubleshooting steps. Close all of your apps and restart your iPad. Try rebooting the iPad as well. It might just be a memory issue .... Maybe .... But start with the simple steps.
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
