I bought a new iPad (original) 3 weeks age. a couple of days ago it started making a "crackling" (like bacon frying) sound when putting it to sleep and sometimes when plugging into the ac charger. Otherwise, the unit works perfectly and charges as it should. Any ideas?

Please take it to your nearest apple store so that the hardware can be replaced ASAP.

It is very dangerous to operate the iPad with an internal electrical failure like that.
